Overheard

Honey please try to understand
You need to use more than one hand

I'm going to try to push it in
Careful, it's not meant to bend

I know it hurt, no need to shout
I am going to pull it back out

I am already going slower
Maybe we should try a little lower

I think we may just have to quit
We'll never get this couch to fit!
