When Morris Imposternak fell in love
The woman he loved didn't love him in return
And so he picked up a violin and said:
You, violin, respond to my application
Because as an inanimate object you have no choice
Play to me, violin, of the amaritude we both know
You, because you are not alive
I, because I am not loved
We are alike, you and I
We can't change the world we can only make noise
The violin played
That is, its strings pushed the air to and fro
As Morris Imposternak remembered how he made love
To the woman who did not love him
Even as matters stood, the look of her eyes had made him forget himself
That is, forget he was Morris Imposternak
The violin played
Outside, buildings crowded together
And passersby passed whose figures resembled figures such as the Russian Л
All life is real life, the violin played
And the amaritude of Morris Imposternak
Became set to music
Blessed are those who love
There are so few of them, almost everybody
Blessed are those who are loved
There are so few of them, almost everybody
How sad there is no one-to-one correspondence
Between these two sets
