Caution: the inevitable pull of cliche
unknown
Come darling, let us throw	1
caution to the wind	2
and run, run away from	3
here. Leave those petty	4
words hanging in the air	5
and your suit jacket on	6
the chair. Ignore all politicians	7
and silly wars, turn our	8
heads away from broken	9
laws.Neglect all rules of	10
our roles, add disloyalty to	11
all protocols.Wed all benefits	12
to all risks, divorce all	13
well-respected habits.	14
Forward all obligations	15
to eternity, fake a	16
well-behaved obituary.	17

Come let us pour wine	18
until overflow and sleep all	19
day in each other's clothes.	20
Feast until we distort our belts,	21
sing and shout until hoarse	22
throats. Kiss without a	23
conditional care, remind all	24
gods we don't care. Make	25
love until we fall on the floor	26
and then make more love	27
until we're sore.	28
Come my darling	29
let us throw caution	30
to the wind,	31
to disintegrate	32
into our	33
dreams.	34
