Divorce Absolut
Divided, sundered, separated, we
Inhabit some place south of “what a shame”.
Vicariously, vodka got the blame;
Opinionated arrogance? Scot free!
Recalcitrant? On that we can agree.
‘Comportment unbecoming’ means the same;
Establishing the language aids the game,
And if we are in perpetuity
Beholden to each other (and we are!),
Suppose we both ignore the papers signed.
Ostensibly, you’re free to use the car;
Logistics can go hang! Are you inclined -
Unless you have a better plan in mind -
To come around tonight, and raise a jar?
