What does it mean

What does it mean

I washed your feet

You scratched my back

It was not symbolic

Of any religious deity

It was never just on Thursday

Maundy or otherwise

I painted your toenails

When you were in pain

If only I could

I would do it again

It was not heroic

If I was a pack horse

I would carry you

Until I fell

As far as I can tell

It was not Homeric

More meaningful

Than erotic

More humble than hypnotic

It was love
