Her beliefs were now sundered regarding the words and hands placement Is this negotiation, she wondered, Backed up against the casement "Why is he so persistent, or from another view, why cant I be clearer?" No one would claim the mood was reflective And her eyes are not a mirror How does she say stop, It's not in his vocabulary She thought they shared a common goal These steps seem so contrary The passenger seat is not the Best of halls to preach in "I don't know how", she cries, "How to reach him " Together in sweet harmony, Must be better than solo For a number of reasons The part he takes is the Low Why wont she say stop It's not in her vocabulary The altar seemed a fine goal Now these steps seem so contrary Blackmail's such an ugly word And burglary is imprecise They totter on the balance between Real hell and false paradise And yet they'll never stop Its not in their vocabulary Dashing hopes on marble tiles In spirit of the contrary.     Written and Recorded (obviously) in one day for the 2020 Song-A-Day challenge. http://songaday.netscrap.com
