Whiskey Dreams

Once upon a midnight dreary, Drunk and stupid not thinking clearly I formed an opinion that i could fly So i stepped off a ledge to give it a try I could feel the breeze whiz past my ears I never felt so free, i had no fear I finally wore a smile upon my face For in the universe i found my place Then half way down my vision cleared I could see the ground was drawing near My smile disappeared, my expression flat I was about to scream then came the splat I bolted upright in my bed I checked my pulse i was not dead I lay back down with a heavy sigh To whiskey and flying i say bye bye.
