MORTAL ENEMY/YOU CARRY THE WEIGHT OF HEAVY BUTTOCKS

(Mash-up of two randomly selected books from my shelf, chosen with eyes closed [Complete Poems of Dorothy Parker and The Selected Poetry of Yehuda Amichai] and opened to random pages)

Let another cross his way---
you carry the weight of heavy buttocks,
she's the one who will do the weeping!
But your eyes are clear
Little need I fear he'll stray.
Around your waist a wide belt that won't protect you
Since I have his heart in keeping.
