Science, Love And Poetry

At the very end
of "The Psychology of Love"--
A long scholarly book
with footnotes and end notes
and abundant citations,--
After the literature review
And plenty of original research,
The author, a well known professor
From a renown university,
Got down to providing
The answer to the question
Of what romantic love is:

""Ninety percent, sexual desire not yet sated."

If her academic career stalls,
She might do well writing poetry.
