don't know why but it is the easiest for me to whip out a rhyme or poem

it's your monkeyitis says him

monkeyitis huh

yaaa

okay monkeyitis it is. A nonsense rhyme this time

that is why you can all the time rhyme

why not, I will play along

it's not wrong

you can't help having monkeyitis as you are the monkey

it's not me, it's you that have that hehe

no, it's you that looks like the photo above

hanging from the tree, not me, my Dove

yes, it is. Your pull up bar reminds me of this

i don't hang with one arm Miss

you could though, I know

okay, maybe I could but no that is not me

the resemblance I can clearly see

your monkeyitis has you lying about all of this

monkey's are liars then?

for sure they are when

they are lying about you

okay, that is all I have to say Boo.
