Strange
indeed how love in other
ways so particular
will pick a corner
in that charnel-house
tidy it and coil up there, perhaps
even fall asleep--her face
turned to the wall!

THE BEATLES

"All You Need Is Love", Magical Mystery Tour

The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. Rooted in skiffle, beat, and 1950s rock and roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in previously unheard-of ways. The band later explored music styles ranging from ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock.

Love is limitless and gender fluid.

PRATIMA SHANTAVEERESH

"Love is limitless and gender fluid", New Indian Express, August 25, 2016


Love's a bully, pushing and shoving
In the belly of a woman.
Heavy rhythm taking over
To stick together a man and a woman
Stick together man and a woman
Stick together.

U2

"Do You Feel Loved", Pop
