Divorce Impossible
The spirit of divorce is in me
I want to divorce my beautiful wife
to marry a funny joyous jest
the motives I do not know
But the more I want to divorce
the more I love her joyfully
divorce impossible, I guess
This annoys me as I chase my tail
she has tied my joyful heart to her bottom
yet her bottom is in my hateful foot
my heart is bitter, lips sweeter
but my ego is anemic and pale
cats twitter up and down my mind
monkeys gather at the door and jeer at me
the wind that blows asks me what’s up?
to all these I cannot make sense at all
