Mabel

There once was a woman named Mabel
Who lived in a house with a stable.
She wanted a horse,
But since her divorce,
To afford one she just wasn’t able.

She had an idea for a cable 
Which might bring enough cash to enable
Her life to change course 
And she knew just the source,
So she laid her plan out on the table.

She contacted Julian Schnabel
And asked if perhaps he was able
To help her endorse,
By using his force,
Her product, which needed a label.

He agreed and how lucky was Mabel
When Amazon offered her cable!
She purchased her horse,
Which sounds crazy, of course,
But this story is only a fable.
