Paul Storm - Pardon Me Miss? (revised)

The never ending bar stories
Closing with outdated wisdoms
Only a drunk delights to recall

Oh friend, Why
Must there always be light
At the end of the tunnel?

With acrobatic attention
I navigate towards
The chromosomal divide

There she catches me
Stumbling backwards
In the ladies room

And with my best put-on British-
'Pardon my ignorance miss
I mistook your basin for a urinal

Would you happen to have a light?
It is rather dark'

Paul Storm
