Explicate This!

Frank O'Hara's

SONG
          
          
   I am stuck in traffic in a taxicab
   which is typical
   and not just of modern life
            
   mud clambers up the trellis of my nerves
   must lovers of Eros end up with Venus
   muss es sein? es muss nicht sein, I tell you
  
   how I hate disease, it's like worrying
   that comes true
   and it simply must not be able to happen
  
   in a world where you are possible
   my love
   nothing can go wrong for us, tell me
