You'll never know

She tells him stories that
He doesn't understand but
He nods his head into 
Submission all night.

He wants to know why
An unicorn copulates with
Cats and Why the Ravens 
Switched to the rap instead
Of their usual caw-caw.

He doesn't understand why
An alien army would invade,
By telling jokes that don't
Incite any laugh and about-

The paradox of why some
Plants volunteered for
Domestication to colonize
The species that thinks
It is too smart.

And she goes on and on
About the monkeys enslaved
To forcefully fart and flowers
Moulded into firearms for
Battles they never fight.

The stories never end 
The sun never comes up.
He doesn't complain and
You'll never understand
Why this has to be a poem.
