love is all you need, sort of

love is all you need,

she says to me,

spinning

around 

with her hippie dress

and headband

on.

well, yes,

i tell her,

getting dizzy looking

at her spin

across the room,

but having a job is important

too,

and a car,

and food,

and shelter.

pants and shoes.

maybe a toothbrush

and a bar

of soap

plus starting that retirement

savings

program early in

life

at Morgain 
Stanely is important

too.
