COMEDY


By Blackjack 


To my sweetheart, my Puddin', my one,
You're the guy who makes everything fun
I plotz whenever I see you smilin'
It's so bewitchin', so beguilin'
You make me laugh--that's what's important
All the other stuff seems so boring!
When you're around, it's a total delight
You're clever and dangerous and ya always excite
Our first caper, I remember it well,
It was so great, an' you were just swell
After that, we were bonded, stuck like glue.
I hope you know that I'll always be true
'Cause you are the one who brightens my day,
The one and the only, the divine Mr. J.!

TRAGEDY


by Blackjack 


Maybe you were too curious
Maybe you seemed too eager to work with him
But he saw it,
Whatever it was,
And used it against you
Playing on your abundant sympathies,
Until you were his.
He will never destroy you,
You're far too valuable for that.
But he will drive you to the brink
Of self-destruction.
Inside your passionate prison
The bonds of total dependence
Hold you to his side
You are the one who makes it willing
You stay, and never even try to leave
But that willingness is what is weakening you
As you dany all faults, and attribute false features
In your eyes, he is perfect
And, should he ever do wrong,
It it totally justified.
The radiant light that you see has blinded you
So you can't see the truth.
His deception, your innocence
The two of hearts, or the two of spades
Your call.
