Under the jejeune moon’s
wide-eyed stare,
idol me not
but love,
past the sell-by date
monogamously magnanimous
revolutionizing best-selling hedonism
for a kiss that goes on
for a lifetime, valentine.
for dVerse, a love poem; Weekend Writing Prompt, 30 words, "jejeune"
Dreams from a Pilgrimage 
I love it, Dora! Your poem is a real mouthful to chew on. Love the past the expiration date!

Love past the sell-by date that’s still good – if that’s not the goal to strive for, I don’t know what is. I really like this piece

“Love past the sell by date,” … yes absolutely!! And I believe that is the challenge .. offered to the lovers .. whether they succeed in staying true to one another. Thank you so much for adding your voice to the prompt ❤️❤️
