A STORY. 34. LOVE IS NOT OBSOLETE
Words from Is Love Obsolete? have stayed in your mind, maybe the last words most of all.
No, love's not obsolete
It's just sometimes obscenely hard to love well
You’ve read the poem a number of times.
Has it ever been the right time,
has it ever been that love is fine,
that love flourishes
Not just something we visit,
like tourists visit the museum …Love isn't easy,
it flows underground,
it's dammed and jammed
and held down by angers and grudges
hard old sludge that won't budge
But is love obsolete?

Love Gamble
Not today. You don’t feel like a gamble.
Time for the House by the River
You don’t like the idea of a house by a river. You think of flooded basements.
What Are You Doing On Valentine’s Day?
That could go anywhere.
You decide to find out where it goes.
