That haiku warrants a title. Any English studies out there?
Anyone have access to a grammar professor?
You know how we all were taught there are 4 kinds of verbs...
Transitive Active (does)(doing)
Transitive Passive.
Intransitive Complete.
Intransitive Copulative. (is)(being)
This verse suggests by example,
the middle line a quote found on a chalk board,
that there is yet one more kind of verb.
Here now with a 5th kind of verb as a title.
With, appropriate interchangeable
subjects ( my,love) & objects (all/that)
................................................................................
TRANSITIVE COPULATIVE
left on the chalkboard
"my,love is-does all/that"
quiet
........................................................................
The sense would be that "I love you" & "this is that" for example
demonstrate a point or state where being and doing are the same thing.
A Presence.
