Caffeine pot bleeping, leaves falling,
Chickens scratching, pines sighing...
OH GOD! ! NO! Not sunshine! ! ! !
You reneged! You promised Eve
No sunshine or mirrors before 10a.m!

So what if she had to swallow that bite
Of apple
To be able to speak... she agreed!
A promise is still a promise! ! !
Women...and mirrors...before 10a.m...
For US...THAT'S the sin!
