Drinking And Driving A Stake Though Your Heart Poem by Ted Sheridan

Drinking And Driving A Stake Though Your Heart

Rating: 5.0


Last night I fixed myself
a much needed drink
an 'adult beverage'
with two ice cubes
plenty of alcohol
a dab of tonic
more alcohol
it was a big glass.
I filled it to the top
sipped a bit
then added more
sipped again...
needed more alcohol
It was a very big glass....
it was just about right
needing only a smidgen more
you got it
more alcohol.
Era perfecto.
Leaning back in my chair
relaxed....
I thought of
the many ways in which I might kill you___

Could it be thoughts of suicide? Surely no the M word? Reminded me of one of mine called ‘Skid Marks’. I’ll go put it on my site right now. Adeline
