Yee Haw Hot Java

Addicted? Who me? Could stop any time One cup a day? Would do me just fine Aside from the shakes Freaking out now and then Craving that fix Going off the deep end Trust me I'm fine Not being deceitful Shakes aren't a problem 'Cept threading a needle But I'll have to admit Some lives have been ruined Caffeine's the nemesis Cut down on the brewin' Whoever discovered it Was a downright putz To cause so much grief With one li'l ole cup! © Jack Ellison 2012

Well, this put me to bed with a smile on my face Jack. (after 1am here) I switched to tea, but I do miss Joe sometimes. Mahalo
