Don't look!
Don't touch!
Don't tell!
Stop ASKING...
why
Why
W-H-Y?
Bless me, Father
For I have sinned
But the sin
was in the Lies...
The Lies were in
the cat's cradle
so deftly woven
in lollipop guise
Rock-a-bye baby
on the treetop
When the wind blows
the cradle will rock...
STOP ROCKING THAT CRADLE!!!
When the bough breaks
the cradle will...
with
tangled
stringy messiness
take that inevitable fall...
Then
Ashes
Ashes
And we all fall
down...
Down...
Down...
the rabbit hole we go...
When we'll hit rock bottom?
Fuck, if I know!
Hey, come on Jack...
Be nimble.
Come on, Jill
Be quick.
Or you may get burned
by that candlestick!
Hell's fire...
Lord, I am not worthy
to receive thee...
But only say the word
and I shall be healed...
Heel, Spot, heel
Stop spinning that wheel!!!
Little Jack Horner may never get out of that corner
while Miss Muffet on her bigass tuffet eats her curds & whey
Cuz Russian Roulette's NOT
a game built by Nintendo,
So...
Ok, Peter, Peter Pumpkin eater
you had a wife but couldn't keep her
Sure, stick the bitch in that pumpkin shell
and there you'll keep her in marital hell
Tis she spontaneously combusts
But...
HEY!!!
No worries,
'Cause, of course...
All the king's horses & all the king's men
Can pick up those pieces
and put them back together again
No?
Oh...
then maybe
some other time...
Looks like Love
is just
Another
Nursery rhyme...
