Kp Nunez Poet Light Verse

Take a Look At Me Now

Heard through the office grapevine
the boss will now resign.

Have to beat the deadline
or that position won't be mine.

I need to work and sacrifice
no sleep tonight, a wink's just nice.

Your Red Bull in my coffee
I drank, now look at me!




Thank you Lyric Man and FJ Thomas for the inspiration.
Reminds me of those days of endless coffee and antacids. :-)

Acknowledgment to flckr for the image of a Philippine tarsier
