Second Thoughts in Columbus, Ohio I find it strange that we search our whole lives for love as though it were the final treasure the solemn purpose of people in movies and magazines. Yet when it comes to your door one morning with calm eyes to deliver itself you realize it alone is not enough. You are before me, sweet man, and I am thinking Aren't I supposed to give up everything? Aren't I supposed to be brave and abandon each dream and aspiration and yield utterly to this elusive beast love, to your soft belly and companionship? Aren't we supposed to have a piece of land -- and children! -- that look like you, and cook soup and bread and sing each other songs before sleep and absentmindedly count the stars from our front porch as we pray for each other's keep and pretend forever is a word known not only by the heart?
