Ode to my Abbey Road Beatles Mug

My Beatles mug

Abbey Road

John, Paul, George and Ringo

Why did you cross the road?

To bring me a warm beverage

Where are you?

Did she come in through the bathroom window

and steal you?

Oh Darling

Someone has found you

In the sink of the office kitchen

Broken in two

Like my heart.

Broken, smashed

By Maxwell’s silver hammer

Never again to

Come Together.

He threw you away

And now

I’m going to carry that weight

I’ll carry that weight a long time.
