Premonition
Woke up this morning
With that feeling in my gut
Something bad was coming
And I’m not sure what
Dreamed of tax auditors
With melodramatic diction
Thought they knew my story
Was mostly fiction
Or maybe it’s the dog
Due at the vet
But she is bright and playful
No, it’s not her time yet
Perhaps it’s my body
Much worse for the wear
Can no longer run a mile
And lost most my hair
Then again my attitude
Might be somewhat brighter
If I did something foolish
Like pull an all-nighter
Maybe I should call her up
Invite her on a bender
But fear the gap between us
Has grown wider than gender
