Cockatiel & coffee cup
Steal the dreams of able
Sit there by the mirage fair
Cards laid on the table
Ace is high but draw it slow
Takes a while for love to show
Kings and Queens they stand in line
Touch their breath & pray for time
One and one is as could never be
Mismatched over by the stable
All to hope is all can change
By mail or text or telegraph cable
