he was so sure
about him and her
until Ouzo came into the picture
Ouzo a Greek
was determined to leak
the secrets of the boyfriend's double life
so before every meal
Ouzo drank a great deal
and stared at his girl with a grin
with anise on his tongue
malice filling the lungs
he divulged what he does when not home
his heart became hardened
spoke all of the garden
that belonged to Michael McGregor
through all the tears
despite all her fears
she listened with solemn reflection
as Ouzo related
how his pride had inflated
and nearly cost him his life just that day
how he just barely fled
how he hid in a shed
and how McGregor had stolen his clothing
so she told Peter then
find a new rabbit's den
there will be no thieves in this home
his head bent low
with Ouzo in tow
he hopped out of his two-bedroom burrow
and never felt better
in this warm summer weather
naked and a bachelor again
