Just Leave Me Some Fingers

I am unhappily walking the plank again Hearing the tick tocking of the crocodile's stomach Knowing my muse is laughing her guts out As if throwing me down the stairs and into a cavern of wild boars who had not eaten for three days Was not enough to keep her amused the rest of the week. I cannot wait to see what tomorrow brings. I just hope she leaves me some fingers So I can still type.
