the call
A Poem by
jacob erin-cilberto
the call
you are
guilty of encroachment---
making your move too
soon
but your only penalty
will be kisses
under the watchful eye
of a referee moon.

love is the most powerful thing we can know ... its in youthful risk taking that we make our greatest and most fatal moves ... i fully appreciate this ends with kisses ... such a positive note!

This is playful and flirtatious in tone and is just adorably cute. I think that's the kind of penalty I'd be up for anytime.

I like it, it describes how a person's subconscious was able to perceive how love was captured without being able to explain it. Similar to love at first sight.

This seems to be said with a smile Jacob, like the one who made the move too soon wasn't only forgiven, but thanked for doing so.
