Rehearsal
Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean.
But then, you never could resist a scene.
Reality Checks
They are not long, the days of wine and roses--
but then, love seldom is what one supposes.
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may;
Soon enough you'll have to pay.
Dotage
That's my last duchess painted on the wall.
Or is it my maiden aunt? I don't recall.
