Free verse day. Tonight was a nice, not too warm not too cool kind of night. There was a large party at the bowling alley in town, and when it let out (at 0100, when the bar closed) there were about 75 people milling about on the street/sidewalk. One very drunk girl caught my attention, which inspired today's lines.
Know When To Say When
You may have had too much to drink if
The world can see...
Down your shirt
Up your skirt
And some dude is taking pictures
You might have had too much to drink if
You're offered water and...
It makes you gag
It makes them sad
To see you wasted like this
You probably had too much to drink if
The police look at you and...
Ask you your name
And your claim to fame
Is a ride in an ambulance seat
You have had too much to drink if
In the emergency room...
Your stomach they pump
And a shot in the rump
Brings you back to a life more complete
