*************
ever wake up in a puddle of drool your face sticking to your pillow back of your shirt glued to the back of your neck ever wonder where all that sweat came from? ever wrestle with a problem in your sleep have the problem you take on grow some muscled arms, long legs one very large torso then some sharp claws on its hands and feet you become a Wrestler center ring battling your Nemesis you are not Magnifico, but someone wearing briefs and a tutu doing your utmost to win the title belt why would anyone need a belt to wear a tutu with bikini breifs? nothing makes sense you'd rather be dancing in a ballroom NOT prancing here shucking and diving in a roped-in ring ding the bell sounds but you're not quite ready for the seven foot hairy-backed monster in the chartruese cape its round three or is it round three-hundred-thirty-three? you've got on high heels with flesh-toned hose a get-up, you'd never be caught dead in if you were awake he's wearing coiled springs on his feet and he's gonna be awful hard to take you're protection is Casper mask he's wearing hockey gear he's gonna kick your ash was that a trickle of sweat or a trickle of fear? the audience all has bad breath they've been drinking cheap beer they're throwing pennies instead of cash its hazy but its all a little bit too clear you are gonna loose then they all are gonna laugh its all too close for comfort its really getting hot in here the battle's has begun once more when you hear the referee shout YOU Hey, Twinkle-Toes limp on over here-- haven't you had enough? then you wake up in a puddle of drool you think that was rough you think I ought to have had a much better name maybe then you could've better defended yourself when you realize hey, I didn't choose it who's to blame it the ones who named you your doting parents thanks and, aren't we through and done with the stuff of childhood yet?
