Toast Masters

 –

Joined toast masters one day.

Thought it would be like play.

–

Goal. . ., well, to better speak,

Stand on stage, knees not weak.

–

But hands shake, sweaty pits

To face crowds, gives me fits

 –

Picturing group, all nude

Getting in better mood.

 –

Laughing at thought, I smile

. . . Forget to talk meanwhile.

 –

Crowd thinks break poetic.

Not know, feel pathetic.

 –

Take deep breath, tensions ease.

Said my piece, didn’t freeze.
