Why Sugar rhymes with orange Tinka sestet

Why sugar rhymes with orange 

Muscles in my head, 
in my imagination. 
Grin, crouch, lift the couch, 
panic attack, hurt my back, 
it’s showoffagitation .
-
What rhymes with orange? 
I can;t get this off my mind.
Move stuff from storage,
while being a do-gooder ,       
can’t lift one more fridge or range. 
--
What rhymes with orange? 
This is to much like a job
can’t take this sore twinge .
while I'm working on that knob.
This box can’t hold one more flange. 
-
What rhymes with orange? 
I ponder poetic thoughts. 
So deep I forage, 
while mining for a booger, 
been here before with sugar .
--
Day’s done, my tail’s spun, 
Maitais gone, I-Taiwan-on. 
Head rocks, the clock stops, 
While heading home my mind roams, 
does nothing rhyme with orange? 
-
Poor St Peter states, 
Jove you are for heavens sake, 
dumb as a door hinge. 
Everybody up here knows, 
that sugar rhymes with orange ! 
--
By Jove


Why orange rhymes with sugar    Tinka sestet

Shirts on outside-in, 
barn door emancipation. 
Tea steeps, half asleep, 
I wreck the spout , milk spills out ,
it's lactomangulation. 

What rhymes with sugar? 
I ponder poetic thoughts .
Mining a booger ,
one eye open one eye not ,
spilled the hot-tea on my crotch .

Drink tea, gotta pee, 
scratch my ass, I can’t get passed, 
what rhymes with sugar? 
See my neighbor through the glass, 
man that old bat’s a cougar. 

What rhymes with sugar ,
dominates my tired mind. 
So deep I forage, 
retrieving this from storage, 
been here before with orange .

Drive car, don't get far ,
visions reeled, then spun pin-wheeled ,
eyes peeled, my fate sealed. 
Cold noses wield a raw deal, 
with pupkiss on the windshield . 

OLd St Peter states, 
oh by Jove for Heavens sake, 
ask Mr Ruegear .
Everybody up here knows, 
that orange rhymes with sugar !

By Jove !
