(The) Police and (Romantic) Thieves

Cold wind from the hills
from the east
brushes off the chirping of crickets
from the west,
never fails to dredge up memories
of broken hearts and tired dreams.
Shut up, fool,
say the romance police.
We have a warrant for your arrest.
Put you hands behind your back,
your heart in its socket.
