Fatigue takes over my fragile being,
reflecting moments,
on multiple has-beens
Distorted images are of low quality,
my mind in a mess,
a standard sobriety.
A man of average height appears,
rich in stature,
chasing all fears,
I'm crossing the rubicon upon this cruise,
large steps are taken,
with the liquor I brood.
Chase me wild like a flutterby,
create the wings with which I fly,
the fearless aqua roars to life,
with you is serene,
I have no strife.
Introducing you is very much hard,
the waddling penguins,
claim there is no lad,
The gild of the sol,
brightens not,
the wonderful sound of your call
