    Gawd. I hate it when a monkey on a trapeze swings above my head using only one hand and a tail.

    Monkey Jack was lame, not nimble

    Monkey Jack was vapid, not quick

    Burnt his ass on the candlestick

    Jill was nothing, if not chagrined

    This love had fallen flat, a discarded bath mat

    She wanted something like the Owl & Pussycat

    Time to kick to the curb this beaver-rat asshat
