i purchased brand new curtains

I purchased brand new curtains
At the store, like anyone
I did not put them on the windows
I installed them on the sun

I used my longest ladder
And my insulated hat
Set the curtain rod on Mercury
And hung the drapes like that

I think the sun would like them
If it had a sense of taste
They have purple polka dots
And they are edged in fancy lace

If it’s morning, and I’m ready
For my shopping or my job
I can leave the curtains open
For myself, and Lynn and Bob

But if I am feeling tired
Or want to sleep in with my honey
I reach beyond the top clouds
And pull the curtains on the sunny
