This Or That Poem by Morgan Michaels

That is that. And this is this.
And that was that.
And this was this.
And that was this. And this
definitely was almost that.
And that was pretty much that.

And this was definitely this or that.
And that will, in all likelihood, be this.
But it's too bad that can't be that
as, nice, awfully, if this was this,
because if that wasn't that, this would be
this, pretty much.

Shall that not be this?
'Only if you really want it to,
be this, that is, if not, not.
And if this is that
by law commutative
musn't that be this?


Once That said to This
'Though I am That and you This,
we are much alike.
Let us marry our differences and thrive'.
'Are you nuts'? replied This, 'let's,
in the interest of proximity, not'!
