There's nothing wrong with you.
We both know this is true
but there's something wrong with me
and you know what that is.
It's the elephant in the room 
standing on our mantel
trumpeting "I'm here!"
I'll call when I find out 
what's wrong with me
and then I'll buy a yo-yo
a shiny one with rhinestones 
the kind we had as kids
and we can try that trick  
"walking the dog" again.
