Pepper, buzzing white;
They meet on marble floors
And dance away the bores.
One cannot tolerate
Summer any more;
The other shivers deep
Inside its very core.
Here at school, they
Have two choices:
Exchange their gifts in kind
Or suffer consequences.
For pan too red to clean,
Meat too frost to thaw;
They need each other's glean
To make it past the slaw.
