Love Poem: Dissonant Minion of Love

Dissonant Minion of Love

So mischievous was Aphrodite's dissonant minion of love
Instinct is discerning towards arrows released from above 

With a dishonest consideration to environmental influences 
	He pulled back his bow
Finger still wet from determining the wind's lingering effect 
	On the emotions below

Releasing piercing assailants from the invisibilities of love
Instinct is discerning towards arrows released from above

Some say he carried a torch to inflame a cold lover's heart
	After piercing it through
Or did the dancing flame's movements depict the direction 
	The winds of change blew

Whether through wind on water or fire, he shot off for love
Instinct is discerning towards arrows released from above 

Scantily clad and trembling in February's cold air does not 
	Fruition in precision archery
Mix in a thin skin that stings in a shaking submission and
	Cold hands shoot clumsily

Arrow tip is dipped in a poisonous mix of desire and love 
Instinct is discerning towards arrows released from above

His alabaster intentions flanked by the callous and careless 
	Comprehension of a child
With no elevation calibration and a credulously nascent mind 
	Misapprehensions go wild

Sporadic, plastic, acidic, nomadic, orgasmic is erotic love
Instinct is discerning towards arrows released from above

Grey faced with white feathers his descending arrows know
	No proper guidance
With knowledge as a shield I voice my own decisions with a
	New found stridence

Venus plays with love as does a cat letting an injured mouse
Deliberately think it has made it safety to a hole in the house

To be an ethical shot the hunter at best should only occasionally
	Succeed with his kill
Leaving the hunted the opportunity to take a stab at love with
	Their own free will
