I Wrote a Good Omelette

I wrote a good omelette...and ate a hot poem...
after loving you

Buttoned my car...and drove my coat home...in the
      rain...
after loving you

I goed on red...and stopped on green....floating
     somewhere in between...
being here and being there...
after loving you

I rolled my bed...turned down my hair...slightly
    confused but...I don't care...
Laid out my teeth...and gargled my gown...then I stood
 ...and laid me down...
to sleep...

after loving you
