Stopping By

Here I lie in a hired bed 
Everything around me is red 
For their minds bleed much in ponder 
Over foolish things, they wonder

The hassle of travelling 
But my stomach is quarreling 
I need to lie down to past the time 
Until all inside me is in full rhyme 

Done in SFC, in a hired bed surrounded by prying and barking dogs and jabbering parrots
