Love this Poem

The Caveman's Lament

me think about her when sun rises me think about her when sun sets me say to her how much me love her she tell me love invent not yet

me make cave all warm and cozy me lie bearskin on cave floor me play song of love on bone flute she choose cave of Tim next door

me no more go out hunt mammoth me throw spear too short or long me sit in cave me paint her picture she say me got perspective wrong

me cook meal to show me love her diplodocus with fried beans she say food anachronistic me not know what this means

stone age might hard for lovers yet rub two flints look what you get small sparks lead to be inferno but she say love invent not yet

homo unrequitus (Brian Bilston)
