Poem Artwork


 


To the center of un-reality,


From life’s uncertainties,


For to find happiness,


Ah to sleep, perchance to scream..


 


To approach abnormality,


To save the self from fatality,


No thought of morality,


To dream just as a formality..


 


Screaming from within,


Trying to avoid sin,


Finding it after all to my chagrin,


Must drink of my bathtub gin..

When your bathtub is filled with anything but gin, say, Morgan Rum (dark of course) I will be there like a shot.
Nice one.

heck, an occasional escape from reality is probably very therapeutic!
