<p>A poem, about turning 40</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>’Twas the morning after the fortieth<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
And all through the house<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not a creature was stirring<span id="continue-reading"></span><br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
Except the one making the coffee and Alkaseltzer</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>’Twas the morning after the morning after the fortieth<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
And all through the house<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
The creatures were starting to stir but generally still uncomfortable and underperforming</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>’Twas the morning after the morning after the morning after the fortieth<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
And all through the house<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
The creatures were stirring<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even the mouse!<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
It scurried up the staircase<br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
Squeaking the old well known phrase</p>
|
|

<h2 id="warning-duration-of-hangover-is-proportionate-to-age">“Warning! Duration of hangover is proportionate to age!”</h2>
