Bubbling Under
Her brain bubbles with champagne; her resolve
Is new and, yet, supposes she’d explain
The hope eroticism can now solve
Her pile of problems - this means she can’t gain
The upper hand, despite imploring looks
And being quite distraught; to find that drink
Disables her and halts the way she cooks
Up schemes to make a man adored; just think
Of possibilities that she presents:
She’d be his love, his life, his dream, his need;
Wrapped up in make-believe, which just contents
Her for the briefest while; but she concedes
This will do for now – it is her aim
And means her brain can bubble with champagne
Is new and, yet, supposes she’d explain
The hope eroticism can now solve
Her pile of problems - this means she can’t gain
The upper hand, despite imploring looks
And being quite distraught; to find that drink
Disables her and halts the way she cooks
Up schemes to make a man adored; just think
Of possibilities that she presents:
She’d be his love, his life, his dream, his need;
Wrapped up in make-believe, which just contents
Her for the briefest while; but she concedes
This will do for now – it is her aim
And means her brain can bubble with champagne
