Don't Oil the Hinges

Our door makes a dismal sigh

Everytime you leave

Somehow the sound

Becomes joyous when you return

And I'm glad you put things off

You can unclog the drain

But please don't oil the hinges

For somehow that annoying squeak

Has become linked in my mind

To your embrace

You can unclog the drain
But please don't oil the hinges
For somehow that annoying squeak
Has become linked in my mind
To your embrace

What an incredibly powerful image and emotion!
