Coma Chameleon

A Poem by Dripping Chocolate Madness
"

You come and go

"
Boozy cloud
Fumble 'round
Hit the alarm
Knock it down
Try to groan
Try to shout
Just can't seem to get it out
There's a haze
Of greens and greys
It permeates
The entire space
It's in my hair and on my face
No, wait...
I shaved my head.

My guitar, Elaine
Lays there in pain
The strain is plain
She's been played in twain
And spanked with canes
Through the refrains
She won't complain
She loves it

All my clothes
And some of those that I suppose
Might not be
Are here and there
And there, and here
A trail to tell where went me.

I follow them to messy end
There, beside the door
My socks and shoes stood end on end
I've no idea what for.

I stood confused
At why my shoes
Might be set like that
And while I pondered this debacle
That's when I saw my hat.

Inside out and upside down
And beaten half to death
I shook my head
"Oh well." I said.
And went right back to bed.

Being the type to do structured rhymes myself, I always admire those who can toss in a little rhyme here & there without any need to make it habitual. I also admire your loose & whimsical way of throwing down a string of observations that are loosely connected & which paint a willy-nilly sensation of how it feels (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Rough morning, it sounds like. :)
Fun to read this stumbling about nonsense.
I don't know how Elaine puts up with you.
