Who will grease the wheel
That doesn't squeak?
While other rotors groan
And belabor the point of the work
And diadems are filled with lube
And elaborately taken
And eased and greased,
Quietly I'll slip the tube around,
And poised, as Circe or Minerva,
In a fashion understatement,
I'll squeeze some grease
Out for the bearing
That never deigns complain.
