i couldn't sleep

Post by Geoffrey »

i couldn't sleep because i felt flustered
so i went downstairs and mixed me some custard
i shovelled in a jawful
but it tasted f***ing awful
and then i noticed on the label it said 'mustard'

Bluck - hot coco would be better

There once was a poet named Geoffrey
who one night Sleep found absentee.

or that I do not like to snore …

i see several viewers from my audience have been inspired to respond to the short verse i composed early this morning. thank you, kind readers. your warm reception is an encouraging reward for my efforts, and a fine confirmation that i remain able to captivate the imagination of my followers in a manner unequalled by my contemporaries. i humbly bow to your applause.

Thanks for the smile Geoffrey...

It is an odd kinda smile, it doesn't know whether it's going to erupt into laughter or turn into tears - perhaps both, like a double edged sword, but it's definitely a smile regardless :D

I recently stumbled across an intriguing poem I felt I had read many times before, and something compelled me to read it yet again…

I was always really curious as to what happened next, beyond those few phrases…

In fact, last night, I thought about it so much I couldn't sleep! :D

oh, that's really simple. it took me less than a minute to write what we all know about Geoffrey


i couldn't sleep because i felt flustered
so i went downstairs and mixed me some custard
i shovelled in a jawful
but it tasted f***ing awful
and then i noticed on the label it said 'mustard'
so I called Dr Zoidberg
my other I.D.
he quickly diagnosed that I can not scan at all in my
poetry
he had the needle
and this came to pass
he gave me a prick
up my aliass
