* Sonnet: Marriage Proposal
Let this world crumble to dust without you.
For I cannot imagine such a world
that exists without existing about you.
Instead let this planet be promptly hurled
into the sun and let the sun explode,
consuming all the orbs in its fury
and like this let the universe unfold
and let it happen in a grateful hurry.
Let everything there is soon disappear.
Leave nothing but an endless quiet void.
For like that void I am when you’re not here
and nothing here for me can be enjoyed.
But be with me my love and be my wife
and I shall have a universe of life.

but I kept a small secret
for something quite grand.
From breakfast we packed
