It's said that all bad
poetry
is just one poem:

"I'm deep... and in pain

... and it's raining outside."

whereas mine go:

"I'm shallow... I'm
drunk

... and I just took a shower."

This often leaves me several rain-drops
short,
for readings.

Unless I come
straight from the dentist,
through
a hurricane -

which is still only
two out of three.
