I'm still bored!
Here's my final version!
I'm awfully wound up and in deepest distress
When I last talked to Lisa she said in a week, perhaps less
You'll be hearing from me, you are getting so close
But two weeks have now passed with no word from Aptos.
The wait is so painful, my gut's in a knot
I so wish I could see that new rig that I bought.
Be patient they say, so I'm biting my lips
I may need a transfusion before my K3 ships.
And all of you others who share my despair
Know only too well why I have no more hair.
The nails on my fingers are bloody and short
I've gnawed them all off I am sad to report.
I toss in my sleep, and I mumble strange phrases
And my wife is concerned by my long empty gazes.
My dog now avoids me, he knows something's amiss
He just can't understand something painful like this.
I must stop all this moaning, buck up, and be strong
After six long, dry months, can the wait still be long?
I'll continue my vigil, Heck! what else can I do
(I'm a mess you can tell, it's like getting the flu.)
Stop this nonsense you fool! Get hold of yourself!
After all, as the Brits say, it's only more pelf.
Kiss the wife, pet the dog, make the most of your time
Don't encourage frustration with dumb lines of rhyme.
But I do have one favor I think I should ask
If I turn out to be less than up to the task
If any of you happen to be passing my way
Check on me please if your blood type is A....
Positive, that is!
O.K. I'll quit now!!!!!!!!
