DEAD SOBER, DEAD BORED, AND DEAD LINES

Settled into seriously sucking sad times
Dead sober, dead bored, with dead empty lines
I'm not griping about scribbling some words out in ink
and then typing them out, I simply just don't want to think
I'm not feeling like sketching lyrics for something to sing
I don't feel like feeling much of anything
I'm just not in the mood to use my muse
I'm thinking I'm feeling like drinking some booze
but I promised myself that I'd force me to write
and to also get alcohol before both their deadlines right at midnight
I suppose that's at least fifty original words or more
Time to grab a couple forties down at the corner store

Author's Note
I was unable to enter the national poetry month competition on time, I decided, however, to play the game anyway. It is important to me personally, and I take it seriously. I attempt to the best of my abilities to follow the rules set out, including a minimum of 50 original words, and a midnight deadline for that day at midnight in my time zone. I can always come up with something to write about, I just don't feel like writing this evening, but hey, I did it anyway
