My eyes are still groggy looking<\/p>\n
And my head is promising that today is probably gonna be a foggy one.<\/p>\n
Ooh, the joys of post traumatic head injury migraine.<\/p>\n
I had a perfect plan and good intentions aplenty…<\/p>\n
For a great night’s rest and a day filled with inspirational witty(ness)<\/p>\n
I had delusions of writing perfect little diddies<\/p>\n
Or entertaining folks with tales of the sweat from underneath my titties.<\/p>\n
But all that will have to wait til I can properly communicate with my brain.<\/p>\n
I guess it don’t help much that I’ve been wake and starin at the clock since just before it turned 4-<\/p>\n
But that fault lies at the feet of my lover-<\/p>\n
For twas he that busted in the door at such a wee hour,<\/p>\n
Promptly fell into bed and began to snore…<\/p>\n
Leaving me wide awake with the book o Faces to keep me company.<\/p>\n
I wander if that’s enough for some kind of plea<\/p>\n
Cause as I watch him sleep, I’ve nothing but murderous thoughts for he…<\/p>\n
Then again, orange or black or grey or blue or khaki<\/p>\n
Has never looked good on me from inside a prison<\/p>\n
Not to say I’ve ever spent nights within them walls<\/p>\n
But eventually all giants fall, right?<\/p>\n
Wait. Let me assure you I’m no conceited uptight little gal,<\/p>\n
So before this goes any more astray-<\/p>\n
Allow me to wish everyone a very merry happy Poetry Day!<\/p>\n
I will see you at the finish line, indeed, I shall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
