Stranger's Valentine

Hate envy bitterness
because love includes them all
though it does discriminate the twig
from the discarded leaf
as if to assuage the obvious
love in the world persists
only to the extent freedom exists
love perishes in captivity
why can’t we get that much clear
these were the arguments
of our drugstore meeting
we stood there in the aisle
agreeing this stranger and I
shouting love love love
what part don’t you get
