Yankee Spelling

Having no colour honour or even humour
such a shame on you 
liking glamour honour and favour just for weddings
and there the colourist painters
anaemic thoughts let us not be paralysed by our difference
like in the aeroplanes above
we do both now travel 
and dream of the Broadway theatres

(lettuce keep our connexion)
