Dramedy of Errors

Walking from the horrid old motel, and out into the smaze, a suffocating day, worsened now, by a mocktail shade of smog in mockumentary proportions, she flounders in a fog. Too dazed by crazy sitcoms that seem to fill her life, on an escalator going up or down, to nowhere in the strife. A contrail of soundscapes, brandished against her ears The dreamathon, of pure devotion, a mockery of years, has vanished now in tears This travesty, her travelogue, a prequel to self- dialogue The modem in her brain, was in a dismal state. Just blogs of malware, skyjacked by the haze. Humongous fury, fills within, while flurried winds regain her wits Chumps of drice come tumbling down to wash away her tears. As she scurries through the clapter, dark skies have dumped the rain that is drenching all the wasted time, directly down the drain. She hails to find a taxicab, in the multiplex of cars, a whizzing motorcade, can't stop to see her scars She will focus on the chortle of all the passing feet the sexcapade, the glitzy parade, seek shelter off street. Some holding hands, transponding laughs and kisses in the rain The docudrama of her life has muddied up her brain Dumbfounded, by the cablegram, now damp within her hand If only left to guesstimate, she truly should have known...., or planned A dramedy of errors, this hazmat suit of words, they should have been her own reply.... goodbye, her final word! Astounded, it could come to this ......"So long"........was all it said _______________________________________________ For Deb's Contest: 8/14/14 "Portmanteau Words" Words used: motel---moter/hotel smaze---smoke/haze mocktail---mockery/cocktail mockumentary---mockery/documentary floundered ---flounce/blunder sitcom---situation/comedy escalator---escalate/elevator contrail---condensation/trail soundscape---sound/landscape dreamathon---dream/marathon travelogue---travel/dialogue prequel---preview/sequel modem---modulator/demodulator malware---malicious/software skyjacked---sky/hijacked humunguous----huge/monstrous chumps---chuncks/lumps drice---dry/ice clapter---clap/laughter taxicab---taximeter/cabriolet multiplex---multiple/complex motorcade---motor/calvacade chortle---chuckle/snort sexcapade---sexual/escapade glitz---glamour/ritz transponding---transmit/respond docudrama---documentary/drama cablegram----cable/telegram guesstimate---guess/estimate dramedy----drama/comedy hazmat---hazard/material goodbye----God/be/(with) ye Dumbfounded----dumb/confound
