For since I do not have you, I must remember best I can, The days like this past Monday, When a spliff was in my hand. I found myself searching For that feeling in my mouth, The one that make saliva smack, And had me heading south. Down to the Circle-K of course, Since water could not cure-- And gum could not be found, Up the isle, I saw, obscured. Gatorade!--Amongst the chips and chocolate, I wandered through that maze, Oh cottonmouth, you waited so patiently, In that silly haze.

Ode to Cotton Mouth
For since I do not have you, I must remember best I can, The days like this past Monday, When a spliff was in my hand. I found myself searching For that feeling in my mouth, The one that make saliva smack, And had me heading south. Down to the Circle-K of course, Since water could not cure-- And gum could not be found, Up the isle, I saw, obscured. Gatorade!--Amongst the chips and chocolate, I wandered through that maze, Oh cottonmouth, you waited so patiently, In that silly haze.
A silly ode.
