A rhymed poem for the contest
A Hopeless Case by tfawcus

Rhyming Poetry Contest Contest Winner

He lies in fields of asphodel
imbued with essences sublime,
aspiring Heaven, caught in Hell,
disrobed by darkness, out of time,

embodied in alternate space,
his mind no longer cognisant,
he’s unaware of his disgrace,
befuddled by intoxicant.

Circumlocutious balderdash
slips with the slobber from his lips;
his words come tumbling—some are rash,
and on his twisted tongue he trips.

What would you say, Professor Strunk?
Inebriated—or just plain drunk?
