Chitter Chat
Do you want to listen to her chitter chat
Or do you want to listen to her this and that
She has a way of just doing that
She has a way she does the "Chitter Chat"

chitter chatter
Chitter chatter left little doubt what creature was hiding in the pines.
I knew before it threw two walnut shells upon my shoes, both nines.
Creature’s eyes appeared before it ears, teeth played upon my silly rears.
Tiny screamed a shrill unholy evil scream, bringing to my ears quick tears.

She said that.

What do you think she meant?
Chitter chitter chitter chitter.
I do not know, I say, not looking up from my typing,
Irritated now.

Oh, I could not do that.
Chitter. Chatter. Chitter Chatter.

But she does not.

before you have me going round the bend?
Although we are the same birds of a feather,
the way you chitter on, I'm turning cuckoo!
I can’t believe we still do things together,
and
