Trading Up

I swapped my breakfast for your portrait

Possibly my lunch for use of this pencil

And two sheets of paper

At the law library

You know what I must do

I was going to write on your book

To save ink

But here I am

Trying to go direct

And pay my respects to you

Don't think I am complaining

Or really even bragging

Rather

Trying, as always

To show you how much I care

Book will burn or crumble

Edifications will all tumble

Our love

And light

Is forever

The true laws

That govern the multiverse
