The Bachelor And The Bride

Beep-bop

On the cherry tree top

Atop

a mountain

With the sky as the blanket

let’s have a picnic with the sun

We can swim and we can run

around the garden that’s as green

as the eyes of my beloved

O beloved, we are solidly in love

Don’t you agree?

It is swell, the way we yell

each other’s names

as if to say

That we’re in love

with each other and the world

Smarty pants McFurl

said mean things to me

Remember that time,

when you kicked him in the groin?

Those times were funny indeed!

We drank wine and smoked weed

all day on the rooftop

And away we went to the lighthouse

that was no longer operational

but still looked very conventional

In its color that looked ghostly

And oh so ghastly

that it made me vomit 

Remember that time?

And remember the bush behind that shed?

Where we vowed that we’d be wed!

How unfortunate that I am dead

I was sure glad to see you weep

for weeks and weeks

Before you found that beast, Lucinda.
