True love

There could be bad water
(says Elsie).
She might get drowned and fall asleep
like Sleeping Beauty,
like this.

And he might fall in love
with her but not yet,
only when he drags the water
out of her mouth.

The boy has to make the tonic
and put it in the girl's mouth
because she fell asleep.

He says I love you,
when I sleep
I always dream of your love of me.

Jam fingers
in the dark depths
of the spear.
You're already got to married.
