Dénouement
I learned a lesson almost
three days ago
An overdue tutorial
about bodies
and souls
and human hearts
And pragmatism
which knows nothing of the
psychology of love
As if there is such a thing
Never give of yourself
before given to
Never presume that an
offer given you
is the offer you thought it would be
before the fine print is read
And never be surprised at the
dénouement of the human heart
Because the human heart is a
simple thing
when you understand it
It beats
It bleeds
It breaks
And sometimes it gives
when it should not want to

The heart wants what it wants even when our minds might know it shouldn’t. sighs…

Excellent introspection. Wondrous medical photo. I love dissecting the viscera and the thoracic cavity. Your self-dissection is admirable and beautiful.
