Ahhh. I see.
I
also see that you moderators have the secret power to actually be logged in
without your green light going on!!! Ah-HA! I thought I had noticed that happening once before with a moderator, but now I KNOW it does!

They are powerful, they are superior, because of what their love endows them with, (we didn't genuflect to nobody), there is a carelessness towards the rest of the world and a reckless abandon in their actions which is implicit of the feeling of being love and of youth another element in the whole living/dying dichotomy.
I know the performance was videotaped, but I'm pretty sure that I have little to no chance of getting a hold of a copy.

Yes, the carelessness towards the rest of the world and the reckless abandon come across in the poem. Maybe when I was young and in love, I just didn't react the same way as your love story people, so it was hard for me to recognize their reaction as love!
I will read your future poems more carefully to see what is in them. I like that you invest this one with many concepts, because this lets me chew on it for a while, which I like doing. Your "Love Story" poem feels like a pear saturated and poached in wine:
The pear in the front is the first time I read the poem. The pear in the back is the second!
