In The Blink of a Wink

I winked a bad dream out last night
An episodic nightmare.
It happens when I don't eat right
And I over do the fare.

I did not think that chips and beer
Could bring about base duress
The taste was good and good the cheer
But my dreams became a mess.

I turned and twist and flung my arms
Retained little of the dream
The dream was not Delilahs charms
More explosive and extreme.

My pillow damp, I had a cramp
Sat up the rest of the night.
Leaned over and switched on the lamp
And the mirror showed me white.

I looked into this ghostly leer
Made a promise to my soul
There'd be no more of chips and beer
Till perhaps the super bowl.

Well what did you expect a fan
I only do the best I can.

O we could really do you in
some Tex-Mex chili and I'm thinkin'
a bit of brew to harbor you soon
it'll either kill you...
or you'll sleep till noon

JM,
To Janet my pet
I am in your debt.
You have sent to me
Your raspberry tea.

And I will toast you
Whenever it's due
And it's due right now
So to you I vow.

When ever I think
And post poems ink
I'll toast you and me
With your raspberry tea.

Winkiewinkie Stinky

Karilea,
And I'll toast you too
With raspberry tea.
*L* Sy
