The Walk of Shame

No walk of shame today Stayed home, did not play  Thus saved a few dimes to  write this rhyme Not giving my brain  a chance to tattle on my heart Or my heart a chance  to give away my soul There is no emotional gutter  to find myself in, yet again  No need of hair of the dog  to clear the smog or lift the fog for a heart too eager to love  At all cost has a price sometimes cheap  sometimes thrice  the intentions of my hope

Joe, a very simple piece; but for those of us who have traveled thus- the level of truth exists. I was very interested in the assonance of dog/fog/ love, very original. Thank you for sharing.
