I am indeed fortune's fool
with my subtle nod and wink
to the Bard, it's not that hard
to love you, especially when
all you say is true.
It's that wink and a nod
to the blind man
somehow it's all the same.
(Not to mention one-eyed men
winking at you in the dark.)
Do you see my earnest plea?
I long to be with you
and am so lucky to be Fortune's fool.
