I Used to Look Good in the Morning…

My yearly contribution of doggerel for National Poetry Month:

I Used to Look Good in The Morning

I used to look good in the morning, but now I look really bad,

I used to sleep with a cherub’s face, but now it’s an old sea hag’s

I used to look good in the morning and woke looking sexy and strong,

Now I wake spent and haggard, and start the day with a yawn

I used to look good in the morning, and start the day with a song,

But the realization of my poor singing, convinced me that was wrong

I used to look good in the morning, and start the day with a bong,

Now I start with coffee, going forth with hammer and tongs!
