the shotglass

just started drinking

shot after shot

rum, vodka, burbon, everclear

what will i do?



i know what i'll do

i'll just use my shotglass

again and again



jack daniels, UV blue, whiskey

that's pretty much what

i'm drinking as i write this



last shot as i finish this

poem is brandy,oh,

i need a cigarette,

and then i'll just

keep drinking until i'm drunk





THE NEXT DAY



passed out finally

have a hangover today

gonna go drink some more

shot after shot

getting drunk again

drinking until i pass out

then start over again tomorrow

THIS WAS WRITTEN WHEN I WAS DOING MY HEAVIEST DRINKING. I AM SOBER NOW AND I'M GLAD I AM.
