A whimsical dialogue unfolds between Plato and Cupid on a moonlit beach about love, reason, and the allure of platonic affection. Cupid boasts growing followers, while Plato laments waning receipts and clings to reason as waves and Neptune’s song set a dreamy, ironic backdrop to their clash over love and philosophy.
