morning Diatelle

Hot
Morning
Great morning
Watching the news
Drinking coffee forewarning
Thinking about things in mourning
The constant news and glooms make me feel the blues
The nightly news makes me want to drink booze
Turning off the tv, makes me drink a lot
I drink following my muse
Soon i want to just snooze
Nap midmorning
Blow a fuse
Hornung
Not
