from Part Two of The Age of Anxiety
Emble did likewise but his choice was a hot number, Bugs in the Bed by Big Myrtle & Her Two-Timers. He sang gaily:
His Queen was forward, Her King was shy;
He hoped for Her Heart but He overbid;
When She ducked His Diamond down They went.
When She ducked His Diamond down They went.
In Smuggler's Cove He smelt near Him
Her musical mermaids; She met Her angels
In Locksmith's Lane, the little dears.
He said to Her: "You're a hazy truth;"
She said to Him: "You're a shining lie;"
Each went to a washroom and wept much.
The public applauded and the poets drew
A moral for marriage: "The moths will get you
If the wolves won't, so why not now?"
The consequence was Both claimed the insurance
And the furniture gave what-for to Their elbows.
And the furniture gave what-for to Their elbows.
A reason for One, a risk on the Pair.
– W.H. Auden (1944-46)
