Duck duck ducky

I was the goose to 
Your gander. It is
A past only in this
Funny way, calling
Myself a goose isn't
Serious. It isn't
Meant that way, of
Course. It's meant
As a funny. I was
Never your goose,
My gander. I am not
A goose. I am very
Serious. A woman of
Substance. And you
Cannot have been a
Gander. Geese are
Squawkers. Ganders
Too. Of course, they
Are. They are geese
Are they not, my duck!
