The pair’s justification

“You spend money on me a lot,

Some needlessly, some lavishly,

Some to my embarrassment too.

It’s nothing to you, the rich

But to me it turns out an itch.

It’s like you’re paying me for sex.

It’s like you’re treating me a whore,

I wish I’d discouraged you.”

“Out of love I spend on you, dear.

Out of passion I spend on you.

Spending on you is my pleasure.

It is more so and on increase

For it’s on one who expects not

Anything from me in return

To the sex offered out of love.

You aren’t a whore, my love’s core.”
