Sometimes
I drink water!
Just to surprise
my liver..

Because, of course,
in certain cultures..
it’s the organ
substituting
for the heart..
as both the giver
and receiver.

For, is not love
the purest
and distilled
expression..
of the universal
will to life?
And so, its most
devout practitioner
indeed must be..
the liver.
The One that lives..
on the right side.
