Why does love exist?

[Consumer]

Looking at the chunks and wreckage
of the last few years of life
much of it finally growing cold
but still with a smoldering finger of smoke here and there
I ask
"why does love exist?"

Is is some cosmic trick?
keeping us around to raise children
take care of each other when we are old and slow
something to soften the bones?

Or is it the "highest" order of our emotions
a reflection of the divine
Making us more noble and living "outside of ourselves"
A dazzling unicorn to leap over the wattle and detritus of our animal nature?

I wonder
and I think
and I ponder the drug-like high
that is far more than just sex or infatuation.

To deny it's existence is foolish
Like the sun rising in the morning you can hide from it
but it's always out there when you open a window
stalking you to touch the skin.

I suppose I can choose the troglodyte lifestyle
safe under my stone and shade
growing pale
Staying cool and safe.

However even there
there will be a crack somewhere
a dazzling little circle moving around the cave
drawing the eye and reminding me of what it's like.

I also need to remember
that no matter how deep the cave
that the Sun is an ongoing Fusion Reaction in space
Love in an "H-Bomb" in our heads.

It gives an acute experience of....everything?

Love exists as a byproduct of sex.

Survival wise, if the parents love eachother, they are more likely to stay together.
Two people can ensure the survival of the offspring better than one person.

And, what happens when they come to a divider in the road that they have to split up to walk past?

Sun was a comely young maid
who'se primary interest was getting laid
Flashed ASCII tits on TK
Insisted on Poetry, TODAY!
So to my keyboard I could hardly be delayed.

Boobs and Love are there,
To be grabbed and handled freely,
Cuddle up and die.
