Utopian Melodrama
The swift stock market ticker
slowed its roll and men of richer
blood began to dance with girls
with tiny lives and plastic pearls;
and courtly love restarts
the sensibility in hearts
that had been stilled before
their fledgling love revealed its store;
and pink buds bloom on trees
of lore in towns where bumble bees
provide the background music for
serenades of yoke and yore
