What is the temperature of love?
What is the temperature of death?
We know the temperature of ice,
not so much the temperature of sand.
If we ask, what is the temperature?
We are talking about the temperature of the air.
The temperature of a book never changes that much--
Not like metal, colder than ice and hotter than flames.
I'm speaking literally here.
We know that temperature is a metaphor for so much else.
