La Belle Dame sans Merci

The time will come.

We have to face facts...

The time will come -

Don't turn away!'


The curtains did not meet

And the room was out of true.

Their meat was overdone.


The affair had long been

'Iffy'

But he knew that they were through

When she blew up all his condoms

And strung them round the loo...


La Belle Dame sans merci -

The most beautiful cruel!

Love it! A Keats reference, a touch of De Sade and a bit of condom/loo absurdity. Bravo!"
