i carry my midget (Free verse) by i love my midget
i carry you midget wife with me (on the account you have no legs and
just one arm)
unless it is fine weather (then I gaffa tape you to a skateboard, and
pull you along by your one arm, which is sadly stunted)
i fear
her fate (if it wasn't for me, you would still be tethered up at the pet
shop where we met) i want
no other (for beautiful you are, even with the downy hair that covers
you head to stump)
and your off coloured skin, from when i painted you orange, when we went
to see
charlie and the chocolate factory, with you as an ooompa loompa
here is the darkest secret nobody knows
(yours are the stumps, the stumpiest stumps
that i adore, and sometimes i am saddened
that you were born with your one arm, even if it is stunted)
but three stumps are better than none
i carry you midget wife (unless of course it is sunny)
