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!!!!!!!!
