Rose, my darling, what a pretty name.
Thank you for your interest, and your claim,
though keeping at arm’s length should be your shame.
Reality enlights and cant’s inane.
When, really we want love, we aim to feign
that no one’s needed. Thus, we live in vain.
Janet’s bit of fluff, disguised as such,
reveals the hidden lesson turned to crutch:
Letting in attachment hurts too much.
