Dear Marzetti

A Poem by Breezie Kae

9/9/2009. Delirious unconnected thoughts.

I can’t sleep, yeah,

got a fire in my brain.

I can’t sleep, yeah,

sounds of crickets and rain

bounce again, and again,

on the sidewalk again.

Asphalt dreary, dear Marzetti,

have you got a new friend?

Have you got a new friend?

I can’t sleep, yeah,

so I write down a tune,

I can’t sleep, yeah,

man, don’t blow you a fuse.

Colonel, Colonel, are you spiced up,

filled up with poppy seed?

Agent, quickly, fill this word up,

slick it with gasoline.

Slick it with gasoline.

Sing a song before you lose your breath,

sing a song then try to catch some rest.

I can’t fly, yeah,

think I’m losing my head.

I can’t fly, yeah,

get your a*s out of bed.

Salty shaker, make your mind up,

kerosene in your eye.

Money maker, get your fold up,

so incredibly fine.

So incredibly fine.

I need sleep, yeah,

think I’ll spill out the rest.

I need sleep, yeah,

loose-leaf thoughts on my chest.

Macaroni, sober pony,

he’s incredibly high.

Royal rich boy, keep it nosey,

till the day that you die.

Till the day that you die.

Sing a song before you lose your breath,

sing a song then try to catch some rest.

Oh, what a deliciously delirious write!

The lack of true nonsense words that mean, but don't mean anything, keeps this from being a true Amphigory. Still, this was a fun read Breezy, I really enjoyed it.

Thanks for participating in the Poetry in-FORM-ation Challenge!
