Polyamory
My single child heart
Would never have
Been amenable
To sharing love
If I hadn't learned to lose
It over and over
To capricious, greedy cities.
They never demanded
My whole, my complete
Heart.
So I exist in love
With London. Delhi.
Edinburgh. Cape Town.
Multiple loves
Who are not quite
Entirely
Mine.
Yet, somehow the parts I get
The parts I give
Are sharper, sweeter, deeper
For it.
