Crackers & Cheese (A Challenge Submission)

When I woke up this morning There should've been a warning telling me "Go back to bed!" tingles from head to toe I spent all my dough and the damn cat slept on my head! I was half asleep, I put salt in my coffe but I drank the shit anyway I lit a ciggarette, it was a joint instead and I have that drug test today! I tried to get dressed, there were no clean clothes So I guess I must go pantiless With each new minute, my frustration grows It would help if I wasn't penniless! So I ran to the mirror in a most urgent way and I discovered a frighteningly bad hair day! But I was feeling quite chirpy and my breasts were particularly perky So who will notice my hair anyway? Now I am high as a kite and a horrible sight I must call off today! For who knows my plight I'm consumed with fright the fear of stepping outside this way I cried and I cried I tried and I tried Praying to God "Please!" Until I finally gave up turned the radio up Thank God for crackers & cheese!This was submitted to TinaBrannon's challenge: It had to be a funny poem (about anything) with the very last word being "cheese". The emotions to be included were.....tingles, particular perky, frighteningly bad hair day and the fear of stepping outside. Yay!!!! I got runner-up! I had a blast doing this one!
