How Far?

The extent of my love
Is the length of the sun's rays
Brightening up the buttercup
Drying up the pond
Leaving ing marshy mud crusty
Reaching into your groin
Crystallizing the juices of your hope
Coagulating the fluids that
Rush through your veins.

I laugh at your pain
Dry hacking laughter
Joyless.
The extent of my pity
Reaches
To the ends of my clenched fingers.
