Madura

Take this pizza to Madura
                        Party down at table seven
They’re divorcing and they’re hungry
                      Years together were eleven

I’m a nice guy so I took it
Though I’ve had no formal training
Down the stairs and through the courtyard
To the patio, it’s raining

Though I know the I am dreaming
                            I was quested to deliver
Rain is heavy and it’s pouring
Patio is like a river

Pizza’s melting, I’m in trouble
                    No time for another make-up
They will surely be complaining
        From this dream, I guess I’ll wake up!

Dreams contain a kernel of truth, or so the Psycho Doctors say. I'm looking for a kernel here... lol. ~ Colonel Sanders

Well thank God it was a dream, Mike. You would have ended with a pizza soup. Maybe it is just as delicious, I wouldn't know. Stunning poem.
