Love's A Dodo

Love is effortless they say. Some compare it to child's play But whatever it is, it's neither Child's play, nor effortless Just look in these glossy magazines Stuck between; those perfume ads. Celebrity after celebrity preens Their lives divorced, they're nomads. Soon—boys these cougars Will bring back shoulder-pads: Live their lives in pent-house apartments. Prioritizing; by shopping, departments. Love's a dodo on a discovery channel On an island where ego it's land and gentry Who cares about their libido…? That snivel- ing poultry magazine, million-dollar deal.
