Dear Mr Sandman
In reply to the message
from you I found
posted to my front door,
stating you didn't want
to come sprinkling
your sand here anymore,
I am so sorry for the
accidents that have
lately occurred,
as in the one where
I had left my five
pairs of shoes on the
floor by my bed,
and you tripped over
them and landed
right on your head,
or that night I forgot
to lock my pit bull up,
and sure enough
you got savagely attacked,
and lastly when I thought
you were a burglar,
and my baseball bat
hit your head with
a very loud whack,
I humbly apologize
and will be more
careful next time,
I'll put my shoes away
and the dog will be locked up,
and make sure your not
a burglar so I wont be so
quick to use my baseball bat,
so please come back
and sprinkle an extra
dose of sand next time,
as its been nearly over
a week since I got
any sleep!
