Just from reading the poem alone. I would title it "Sought Eros, Ignored Pragma, then chose Philautia over both." Using Greek words to describe the different types of loves embolden in the verse. (I read it thrice...thus this is how it read to me.)

If you are anywhere near Swindon, have a word with Clive Osman. He is aBrummie exile who, with Nick Lurvell, founded Ooh, Beehive, based at the Beehive pub in Swindon. During Covidd it went online. It is generally performance poetry, but does include a lot of funny stuff. Clives poem where he acccidentally transposed B and P is hilarious.
