Cautionary Verses (Part III)

If you must take to coffee,
Just do it with a smile;
You'll feel the jitters coming,
Just stop and rest a while.
With shuddering and creaking,
Your engine starts to shake:
Just grin a lot and bear it
As your body comes awake.

If you are hooked on caffeine
(A normal human state)
Remember that the bitter
Is often sweeter late.
Your mind will last far longer,
Your heart will never break;
Just grin a lot and bear it
As your body comes awake.
