reverse justification

The triviality of our dalliance
has gone past the point
where frivolity alone
meets whimsy and fancy
and attempts to conspire
to justify its existence
and purpose, on higher
or lower or similar grounds,
succeeding easily
on the basis
that it is found
completely unnecessary
and gratuitous,
like all the best things
in life: like beauty, like
abundance
beyond all want
and need, and peace and joy
in serenity. Like
two of us.
