There he sits
Between a large anthropoid ape, with shaggy, strong arms
And a North American plant growing on wet, acidic soil.
There he sits
On a white table, with Ty Burrell telling him,
“You’re just as great as the other guy.”
There he sits
Between rubies, strawberries, danger, passion
And gold, lemons, envy, and sunshine.
There he sits
The most influential royal house in 16th century Europe
Always being compared to the mighty Apple.
But all he wants is a friend
A friend who doesn’t have to look like him,
A friend who doesn’t have to like the things he likes,
Not even a friend who actually spends time with him.
All he wants from this friend
Is a name to rhyme with him.
