O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Perhaps any chore
Is less of a bore,
A less demanding grind,
If taken by two,
(A someone and you),
With faculties combined.
While there have been others
Who labored as brothers, –
The Gershwins come to mind,
Just what predetermines
Success like the Shermans'
Has never been defined. –
Is dividing a task
An easier ask
When done by two of a kind?
Does the job to be done
Gain elements of fun
When the DNA's aligned?
