Tired Dribblings From a Cracked Pen. My medication was off which could be a dangerous scenario in fact quite more certain than a walk through the barrio. My sugar registered quite high yet my mood far from sweet, if given any challenge I’d not stayed on my feet. The error’s been corrected I feel so much more inclined to write or to labor given opportunity while there’s time. It was a mistake, I feel certain though not admitted quite as such but at least I’m still kicking and not so out of touch. Yesterday, though, was a rough one for me I didn’t feel like writing or even having tea. I worked a bit on banking clerical, rote energies Walked a couple of errands to combat sugar’s destiny. When the day had fairly ended I found I’d had no yen to even scribble tired dribblings from a poet’s cracked pen. ©September 26, 2002 I hope it’s okay to add a word for the meter in the challenge phrase. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

This write reminds me of a dream where you are moving in slow motion no matter how hard you try. Nice one! Hey dog, did you see the size of that chicken!? |

Don't worry, VAS. A challenge would be boring if you couldn't change the rules. I loved this. Sugar high. Sugar low. And your meter? Leaves mine sipping puddles in the street. |
