Caught in the crosshairs of love
and it’s no dove but my heart flutters anyway,
anyway it can to do the can-can,
for I’m beset on more than one side,
and neither are my good side,
but ones that show me up in a bad light
despite my determination to do right.
I feel squeezed into a corner
wearing the tricorn dunces’ hat.
That’s where this love is at.
