Part One
Where have you been all my long life?
Trying to survive in this world.
Forgetting to appear part-pearled.
-----
What are you talking about, Wife?
Ten years ago you knew me well.
Forever is a place in Hell.
-----
Part Two
What did you do with the ax, Wife?
Tired of looking for your spare keys.
Found a new way to feel at ease.
-----
Where will we hide our dooming strife?
This act of yours has gone too far.
Find yourself an equal crowbar.
-----
Part Three
What flames, what candles are these, Wife?
Thanking Goddess Athena, now,
For helping me retain my vow.
-----
What happened to Jesus, and Christ?
Truer data prevailed within.
Freedom follows from spin to spin.
