Damn that spiked eggnog, this is the result, a dream or nightmare...?


Missiles are incoming like rain,


Sent by an idiot without a brain,


One can follow them through the sky,


Low they are, not flying very high…


 


Some explode on impact,


Some give ya time to think,


Should I run, should I hide,


Should I shower so in death I don’t stink…?


 


Our world not as we knew,


The sky an atomic red, no longer blue,


For those that live a slow death will ensue,


The only place unaffected, Kalamazoo…


 


No bodies left,


Unless they had some heft,


Gone to ten thousand degrees in a second,


Those that remain are of hope bereft…

I had a weird one last night and I don't drink.
Perhaps I should if it encourages verse. (LOL)

You should drink eggnog more often. Now you need to drink more Old Weller to reverse this dream and blow chunks to purge. This would be cool in slow motion........re.........gur.........gi.......tate.

Six more days before you have to make a resolution, so live it up while you can, Ed!
