My glass is half
the way to top,
and half the way
to bottom,
and though
my thirst
is not the worst,
–that missing bit’s
the problem,
conundrum here
not half a beer
. . .
though drink ‘em
if you got ‘em.
With lacking fizz
dilemma is–
should I regret
the bubbles?
lacking from
my cup
(and tum’)
would it be better
doubled?
despite the fact
remaining half,
slakes my thirst
when guzzled?
Or is it best
to view the rest
of lager in the mug. . .
as blessing
not a lessening
of beer still there
to chug?
–since if I do
it’s sure that two
steins are seen
from suds…
The salient parts
of riddle are–
it isn’t what you’ve got,
since having half
of quaff’s not bad
–it’s better than
have naught,
if less allays
why not appraise?
(your)
little as a lot.
