O Cynthia

Cynthia O my erstwhile lover
I pine and flounder.

Yes, yes I know I once dumped you -
you just were not pretty enough,
in your tartan wooly socks
but your body once 
really rocked my rocks.

O Cynthia, I am not the same
but you Cynthia will be
forever on my brain.

In my mind you come to me now
in my jacuzzi
all lithe and super sudsy.

Cynthia O Cynthia,
be not so cruel, I was a damn fool.

I think of you still
as I ought've or ought'er
frolicking here so naked
in my scuzzy hot tub water.
