Georgie Porgie

This rhyme came up today, and it's been resonating:

"Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry,
When the boys came out to play
Georgie Porgie ran away."

It goes oddly quite well with the lines of one of my favorite Magnetic Fields/Stephin Merritt songs:

"You are a splendid butterfly
It is your wings that make you beautiful
And I could make you fly away
But I could never make you stay."

And, that is my bit of cryptic romance for now ...
