Analysis of Aping Me
My kind honey bee are you stinging me?
Should I wait to see or now quickly flee?
My short memory are you leaving me?
Should I ask to see or just cop a plea?
My big money tree are you paying me?
Should I add to see or stay fancy free?
My old bonhomie are you coning me?
Should I spy to see or trust honesty?
My exultant spree are you hiding me?
Should I try to see or keep fantasy?
My kin chimpanzee are you aping me?
Should I hunt to see or simply agree?
