A Hangover

oops

In the morning, ‘fore last
Night jousts in pangs,
‘Fore she recalls gins, or origins,
And she is up for grabs,
And any name sinks in its fangs;
When any pauper nabs
At the greasy feathers on her wings,
When the sunlight lays siege
On perfected rot and pecks in disarray
At the impeccable softness of day --
And stains the thrush’s throat that sings,
‘Fore she remembers the antidote of rum
To drown out the humdrum
Villains who come and go,
Leaving the doorway open for a skin,
Or another accomplice
Circa tombs of light-locked pumice,
She reaches for an aspirin
To quell the shapeless sin.
