Trying to catch up.
Why to Want to Drink
Straightedge gives
more to stab yourself
night's end.
X's on hands
replaces kisses
hello goodbye.
Can't pretend
to hear anything
in nightclub.
gun shell clinks
of shot glasses
fill words well.
Loneliness is not
aphrodisiac
too any thinks.
No excuse cringing
clutching onto morning
until late for work.
No what's-with-thems
people who avoid you
you know every why.
Long for haze
police would deem
too sober to drive.
Resist slamming
brakes on highway
flip weight of awake.
