" ON INSTANT GRATIFICATION "

" ON INSTANT GRATIFICATION "

A courageous lover remains steadfast in Love
And puts no credence
In the devil's,
Warm,
Seductive words
Of instant gratification,
Where masturbation,
And self mutilation,
Are
A secret Lover
Unobserved,
That spreads it's diseased
River
Of falsehoods,
Leaving Love's initial desires
Deflated,
And hopelessly forlorn
Simply because,
The devil's
Lovely presentation
Cleverly, came adorned
In a radiant promise,
Of instant,
Gratification....

Tony Taylor.  (Chicago)
