a poem by Garnet
They said that it was Breaking News
A triumph scientific
Not one minute did they lose
The message was specific...
‘Neath camera’s glare the man announced
In an excited wheeze
“Our studies show this thing called LOVE
Is akin to a mental disease!”
Perplexed and stunned, the crowd was still
No reaction did they show
Till one man shouted, “Tell us please
A thing we don’t already know!”
“Mushy poems on Valentine’s Day
Rings that swallow half our pay,
Not happy till your wife you’ve made ‘er
A screaming brat comes nine months later...”
“D’you think we’d go through all that pain
If LOVE were something that was sane?”
