Care

What we call care
Is a combination
Of tending
Pandering
Responding, reacting
Or, at best — in most cases —
Financial support

For ones, we care for, the most
We package
The mechanical
Activities — interactions —
In affect
Feelings

To make them warm
Sticky
That hold
The one cared for
Emotionally

Professionally —
Care is transaction
Personally —
Transference
Of sticky residue

Care —
If it can be at all
Must be
Impersonal
Untransactional

Like rain
