Well, I'm not sure how you'll illustrate this, Jane, but I'll kick off with my "Spinster’s Lament" pantoum...
Tell me, where can I find Mr. Right?
I seem destined to stay on my own.
Talk of marriage and men get uptight,
- same old story with each one I’ve known!
I seem destined to stay on my own;
why are some men afraid to commit?
Same old story with each one I’ve known -
I fall madly in love, then we split!
Why are some men afraid to commit?
Aren’t their feelings and needs just the same?
I fall madly in love, then we split.
It’s beginning to feel like a game.
Aren’t their feelings and needs just the same?
After all, love’s no different for men.
It’s beginning to feel like a game,
being let down again and again.
After all, love’s no different for men.
Will I always be left in the lurch,
being let down again and again?
I’m determined to keep up the search!
Will I always be left in the lurch?
Talk of marriage and men get uptight.
I’m determined to keep up the search!
Tell me, where can I find Mr. Right?
