Duke of the uke, or: Patsy

Luke Glueck was the Duke of the uke;
he’d get drunk and twang like a kook.
His drinking and juking drew rebuke,
cuz every damn’d night he would puke
and collapse on the floor, his brain nuked.
It’s no wonder Luke always got rooked!

5. Hehe! That is always a danger of overindulgence – the puking…. My husband hasn’t been drunk or hungover since the day before Passover the first year of our marriage. And he will never again make such an egregious error in judgement!
