Wednesday Is Poetry Day

Any poem that contains the following bit of wisdom is probably worth a look:


. . . you, Hangover,
are the opposite of Orgasm. Certainly
you go on too long and in your grip
one thinks, How to have you never again?


From "Ode To Hangover," by Dean Young, which you can find at Slate.com. It's supposed to have a link whereby you can listen to the author reading it, but the link don't work on my machine.
