The Culprit was a Slime
She did not fully understand
Certainly not the promise-land
Charming until the big date
She wondered at her fate
Conversation was a bit blue
Her feelings were all askew
The culprit was a slime
Was he a known enzyme?
She caught herself in time
Which preserved her bliss sublime
