Hostage Caker

Delicious to taste
Overdose of sweet intake
Can't eat it as much as rice
Otherwise, a diabetic will rise.

Born To Remember

No recall of what transpired
No experience to tell
The only thing you'll remember precise
Is the date you started life.

Wide-Eyed Zombie

Less rest, too little shut-eye
Longer day, too long awake
What your body can take
Can't go beyond the limit you create

Loyal Mail

Around the world in an instant 
But couldn't find its destination 
The address doesn't match a home 
The package can't be owned.

I paid for the send-off price 
I get the same package twice 
I leave it unopened 
For there is no surprise.

Terminally Late

Several planes have taken aflight
Travelling at breaking speeds
Feet are grounded, nowhere do I go
They are airborne kilometers away, I'm still at ground zero.

Zombie Alert

Staying awake when you've just taken sleeping pills
Is just as tough as trying to sleep after 5 cups of coffee
Fight the sleep, forego the rest
Zombie you become and alertness is your test.

Room Service

House away from home 
In a land far away 
Zero is the magic number 
For attention during my temporary stay.
