.
That isn't a throat, my dear
it just helps him speak lies
That isn't a heart, my dear
it just gives him life, so he take yours
.
That gravel tunnel he calls a throat
needs a sign like a truck;
["Stay 50 feet back!"]
.
Just in case he decides
to throw unsuspected
objects towards
your unsuspecting heart.
