Groggy and yawning
I was off to write the constitution
Should I...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...that's what I told her...but she didn't believe
Used to ugliness and cold crime scenes
Like a bad dream...smelling roses...

“Well apology and memory. 
If you have literary pretensions, it's about

Poor Pitiful Me
Stumblin' through the haze
In a dumfounded daze
In a muddled malaise
Like a mouse in a maze

Broke and blase
Stuck in my ways
My libido won't blaze

When off...

I calmly requested him to allow me to park.

I had time sensitive deliveries, but he...
