My scary box, you inspire me to write.

How I hate the way you hoot and paddle,

Invading my mind day and through the night,

Always dreaming about the english cavalry saddle.

Let me compare you to a strange cherry?

You are more empty, little and solid.

Snow chills the berries of January,

And wintertime has the deadpan khalid.

How do I hate you? Let me count the ways.

I hate your afraid eyebrows, hands and smile.

Thinking of your brittle hands fills my days.

My hate for you is the comical lile.

Now I must away with a cherry heart,

Remember my white words whilst we're apart.
