Perhaps you have wondered,
(Perhaps you have not),
Why this prolific blogger,
Has failed to post squat.
For over a week now,
His silence has said,
"What's happened to Duncan?
Sure hope he's not dead!"
Well, dear Blogspot fans,
I write now to confess,
That a dearth of black coffee,
Has made me a mess.
Repeated arrhythmia,
Blood pressure, too,
Convinced me this week,
That caffeine is taboo.
But getting off coffee,
In an addict like me,
Nearly put me to sleep,
Eu-tha-na-si-al-ly.
