Malfunction in the concept of Love
Twenty eight days to return you
Just because you don’t please me
If you don’t match what I have already
I can send you back.
Perhaps, in the light of my home
Your colour is not quite right.
If you function well
I may just hold onto you,
Working you day and night
Should your light go out
Or you are not cool anymore,
I am guaranteed a replacement
As good as, if not better than the last.
A malfunction sends a man to repair you
He attempts to kick or shake you to your senses.
Unperturbed, they will wheel you away
Placing a new one just where you stood.
