WORDSLURRED

For The Sunday Whirl: Steps, Poetry, Virtue, Drunk, Room, Ditch, Bends, Wish, Palace, Breaks, Diminishing, Burden.

LATER THAT SAME EVENING...



Three steps forward, two steps back
Poetry in motion... not!

But patience is a virtue

So bear with my drunk attempt
to make it back to my room

...without falling in a ditch

...and waking up with the bends

But at least I got my wish
when I drank The Palace dry

Breaks my record for boozing

Senses diminishing now...

Am I being a burden...?

    What a wondrous dance--for which you will pay a price, of course!

    Whirling with Bram Stoker

    Yes, the first line took me to the dance, and the ditch is no place to be...delightful!

    Great whirl Stan. Ugg, I remember a time or two when it was really nice to have a friend there to hold my hair back!

    Nice, edgy, fresh - a 'whirl' in itself. :)

    Entertaining sorts are never a burden, Stan, and I imagine you keep things lively. It reads like drunk ramblings. Well done.

    You make me sort of wish to get a bit tipsy and do some writing, but after thinking of the hangover, I've decided to leave it in your more capable hands. Thanks for the smiles and even a giggle,

    Reminds me to eat first before downing Lemonchello - An Italian hard lemonade (more hard without any aid!) - tasty indeed. Drunk or just the pretense? Jesters of the Palace were most notably the wisest of the bunch ;)

    Thanks for your visit to both of my wordle pieces. Clink, Clink! And
    Cheers!

    Not a burden at all, words don't weigh much.

    Stan, I love that second line, and how you ask us for patience. And how you played with "bear" and "burden".

    chuckles. That last line is usually the one that STARTS my round of "mood-alteration"
