I love you, is the Most Useful Sentence Yet Invented

So this is all I can say, like repeated anthems of my private illusions

The body knows

What the mind has since forgotten

Revelations of our ancient self

 

There is a word for this way of communicating

It’s sensory telepathy

Male-female old consciousness

 

It’s not a failure to find words

It’s a constant stream of information

Heart, brain and cells

 

The body knows

If you love everyone

You will know how everyone feels

 

Language is a device of the left brain

Empathy is the dependable art of the right

The body knows

 

In the pre-literate affections

That we dance here for a primitive unity

For the thrill of unborn unity

 

The body knows

Why we practice service everyday

Why we receive more in giving

 

Than receiving, we’ll get there

In a shared entrance to a new consciousness

We’re love, inhabiting close quarters

Glowing for nine months of incredible safety.

Reviews

[Circe]

I like the ideas that underpin this.... love's universality that draws us together... there's an openness in your poetry that leaves room for idealisation and for truths to blossom.

[Marie]

Where the mind cannot go, the body's knowledge takes over. Primative insticts may be buried; they never die...

[Prolific In Verse]

Yes quite so.
