Brain Versus Heart

"Anarchy! Anarchy!" Slithered the tongue "Order! Order!" Shrieked, Lord Lungs And so wane the day - when it's Heart or Brain Drunk in orphins, with a punch of choline; Braino Brain without a grin, climbed high the podium. It was he who should rule, not that Hearty Heart That crimson fool! "Gentle vitals, herald my plea! I,the captain of this ship 've steered us all , Away from hardship Thinking and acting , Reasoning and reacting; Pray explain! Why at day's end It's the red's charm that reigns? Assertions and reason's chimes, Had I not sung thousand times; But lo! The traitor Blind in love, Bluffing his ways, And like fool we played. Alas! the end we all failed. O broken heart ! You smothered us all, Stung with phantom pain How you 'd acted lame; Tormented the ears with melancholy tunes Starved the gut with no food And how you casted an evil spell That for days the eyes swell. Noble hepato have you relinquished the taste? Of toxin burnt within thee Baffling my own cognition When he raged broken! broken! Drunk day and night. Had not my logics prevailed, The fool almost turned us pale ! Nah! no more shall we draw blank Upon his cruel prank Let us all abdicate him. Lock him up, behind a cage Never allow this fool, To fall in love again !"
