Nick's Last Night Out

Rating: 5.0


Three young men leave the bar laughing
A forth sits alone on the curb
A six pack of beer is beside him

One man acts as though he will steal it
Always playing the clown for his pals
He puts it right back on the ground

The man on the curb isn't smiling
He jumps up and pulls out one beer

Three men walk away laughing harder
The forth man is missing the joke

He runs from behind with the bottle
Hitting the unfunny clown

A head hits the ground with such fury
That a brain smashes into a skull
A young man doesn't ever wake up

His mother will watch as he dies
Then she'll bury her beautiful son

All because one man had a temper
And no sense of humor at all

I am always excited to see new work from you and as always, I'm not dissapointed! A moving, sadly beautiful poem. You're the best!

I really like the way you wrote this...lulled the reader into a false sense of security, then hit them with the last goodbye...great work.
