Mixed Emotions Tangled Rhymes

Mixed Emotions Tangled Rhymes

I began this poem inebriated

And waited ‘til that state abated.

Then I found quite soon in time

I twisted words to make them rhyme.

And so I moved to blanker verse,

But soon commenced to shout and curse.

Then blanker verse became quite worse!

Words began to curl, not rhyme.

It happens to me all the time.

Now why can’t porridge rhyme with marriage?

And why does cupid rhyme with stupid?

Wait a sec, I got that solved.

From one source they both evolved.

Now if I can just untangle, 

Reasons for both jing and jangle

And why can’t we just jingleangle.

Now that my rhyming urge is sated

I’ll raise a glass to inebriated.
