love and hate

what is love?
you can't fill a cup with it
yet some would die for it

what is hate?
you can't send it through the poste
yet some would kill for it

what is happiness?
you cannot feed this to your dog
yet some would spend their whole lives searching for it

what is death?
nobody knows, really, what it is to die
yet some obsess over it

what do i seek?
something tangible? some ungraspable ideal?
no.

all i want is some chips, and maybe a little iced tea.
