First, a series of passionate poems for Haruko, a love for a woman that blooms and then falters. Then, a series of love poems to men and women, around politics and even on the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Even if I didn’t connect to all the poems, adding them gives a sensual, smooth, intimate, caring sensation. Love described as a whole, joy and pain confounded. Very emotional.
“Resolution # 1,003
I will love who loves me
I will love as much as I am loved
I will hate who hates me
I will feel nothing for everyone oblivious to me
I will stay indifferent to indifference I will live hostile to hostility
I will make myself a passionate and eager lover in response to passionate and eager love
I will be nobody’s fool“
