To the Sot’s Partner

Impossible to rehabilitate
if ultimatum’s used to push or pull.
That’s common but no way to motivate:
impossible.

She has no work to be responsible
about; she doesn’t move and won’t create;
she’s home all day; her plate is never full.

In solitude, how can she modulate?
She gathers nothing but some tufts of wool.
We feel you, but we’re hopeless as we state:
impossible.

(Roundel)
