John Lawless Poet Limerick

Sleep Tight

Sleep Tight


all his heroes wore costumes at night
wrapped around all their muscles so tight
his chances grew slim
at an outcome so grim 
when his costume exposed – cellulite

Julia Ward May 24, 2015 at 1:19 PM Speaking of "sleep", I still need you to alter "sleep" to "sleek" on your comment on my poem "At the piano". Thank you... You can do this via your outbox. ******* I enjoyed your poem.
