The man
opened the
Google page
and typed in
the word ‘love’.
In return,
the web asked him,
did you mean
lust, desire,
passion, deceit,
betrayal, pretense,
double crossing,
venomous heart,
hypocrisy, hatred,
or just
over the counter
intercourse?

Desperately
the man
typed in again,
‘pure love’.

Google said,
your search
did not match
any documents.

Accepting his
silly ignorance,
the man ended
his search,
took out his pistol,
put its barrel
to his mouth
and pulled
the trigger.
