The Peep of Morning

The peep of morning's winking light
Woke the rooster's sour and tart crowing musical assault
He assaulted my senses until they will be heard
"up you lazy body"
Arise and greet the sleeping mongrel...
His fleas beg to be fed!

I'm not familiar with Burlesque as a poetry form, so thank you for sparking my interest! This is clever and humorous :) Kris
