Hello my darling little pearls,
What a treat we have for you today (I say we deliberately, for reasons you shall find out presently). Presenting, me doing a poem for cult sleep-based photo blog Pete Asleep which shows the omnivorous Pete Ralph asleep time and time again. The picture that inspired this poem can be found HERE
Peter Sleep
His gummy eyes creak open.
He wipes away the drool.
He blinks away the booze-fuelled fug
And peers around the room.
Smash.
Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle.
On the floor
A single, wilted red rose
Resting in a pool of glass and murky water.
Hhm, it must have been balanced on my head.
The lights are out, the doors are locked
The Sticky Toffee Pudding he had ordered eight hours ago
Sits untouched
In a congealed pool of so much muck.
I must have fallen asleep again,
Thinks Pete,
Tucking into the cold
Gummy pudding.
Feedback welcomed/actively encouraged (eg. did you enjoy this mash-up? Do you enjoy mash? etc.)
