Prince Charming

He staggered from her bedroom zombie like,
And scratched his armpits, belching, breaking wind;
His hair was sticking up, his beard unkempt;
He took a shower, brushed his teeth – and grinned.

Hysterical, Jack! I love the way you describe this man. I'm assuming this is for John's contest and, if it is, he's going to love it. The title is a riot too! Best wishes for success. Love, Carolyn
