to her naked eye I’m sweet and kind
but when it comes to nudging me,
my divinity fudge and me
have yet to reach the happy regions of her mind
[Howard wads up the paper and throws it away]
no, that won’t work
eve :
honey, i'm home!!!!
howard :
i'm in the study dear
let’s see
to her naked eye I’m sweet and kind
but when it comes to …. judging me …. hmmm …..
when it comes to judging me …… her heart won’t forgive me
…. I just need her to give me another chance …..
but she won’t ….. my diamond would never …. no matter how clever i rhyme …
this is forever ….
eve :
Howard, are you almost finished with your endeavor?
howard :
almost, sweetie
[Howard takes another drink of lemon and lime]
[then writes]
……….. to her naked eye I’m sweet and kind
but when it comes to judging me …. her heart is harder than hardest diamond that’s ever been mined …… hmmm
[from the other room]
what did you say dear?
howard :
oh, nothing sweetheart
but if she ever lets me exist, even in the furthest reaches of the happy regions of her mind
[Howard sits back]
pretty good
[Eve sets a coke down]
how's it going ?
howard :
just trying to get this last line to interwine with the others
eve :
here, let me see
how about this?
[Eve leans forward and writes]
how's that?
[Howard reads]
that's perfect eve!!!!!!
eve :
that's easy to believe, isn't it?
howard :
of course baby
[they leave the room]
[5 minutes later]
[2 mice scurry onto the table]
mouse#1 :
well, what does it say?
mouse#2 :
i'm looking, i'm looking
ah yes ...
[they both look]
it’ll be easy to insist why looking past her “Milky Way” is the best source for reasons to exist i’ve been able to find
So far
[they look at each other]
mouse#2 :
maybe he's
right
love,
eve & howard
