Litany for the Emperor

I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make       apple sauce.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        the bed.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        cookies.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        love.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        it over to my friend's house.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        a poem.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        it to work tomorrow.
I don't want to fight your war.
I want to make        a salad.
