I have suffered from Insomnia
all of my life, walking around
aimlessly in soft shoes lest I
disturb the rest of the house
where the peeping dogs lie.

Nowadays there appears to be
a quick fix to almost any ailment,
yet, nodding off until recently
has not been included in treatment.

But that has all changed since
Prince Andrew's discovery 18 years
ago when he had a Pizza Express
in Woking.

Immediately, it was as if he became an
Anglo Saxon version of Rip Van Winkle,
a state of opiated amnesia overcame him,
transported from reality into omissiveness.

A hypnosis became him, everything
before and after March 10th 2001 was
instantly deleted from his mind.

Pizzzzzzzzza Express in Woking is the
ultimate sleep inducer and is now on NHS
as a cure all for those afflicted with Insomnia.
