GREAT LOVE AND ITS SMALL VICTIMS

Oscar Wilde(1854-1900) and Lord Alfred Douglas(1870-1945)

It might have been great love,

but a great love

involving human sacrifices;

children given to Tlaloc,

adults with their hearts

ripped out for all to see.

What are such sacrifices

to later generations free of them?

Nothing.

Love - that justification

for all evil and suffering,

has suffocated its victims.
