science friction 

and i didn't even poof read 

and you're singing round the house 
like a disney character plumping cushions 

and he's like fancying this bird and that bird

and then i saw her heart 
was like mine like a little gerbil  
that squirms with pain 

and i held my gerbil a cupped hand in my palm
