It was well lit
with flashing strobes
followed by hits
of sonic probes
Away me boys
Forget our joys
Outsail this gale

Thank you! You definitiely should follow to not feel sore bereft. However, you’d probably also feel okay if you get a good nights sleep. 🙂

Haha, yes I could use some dreamless sleep. I’m tempted to try writing a Ha’sonnet though…

Give it a try
it’s not that hard
You just untie
your half a bard
Let loose some rhyme
and in no time
you’ve caught a thought
🙂
