Never Again for Friend Ray

sonnet in I ambic tetrameter

 

 

Never again

 

A beer makes a new man of you

and then the new man wants one too

He takes the opportunity

to sink his beer down thirstily.

 By then its time for number three

 and you are sinking happily

 into the state where you’ve lost count.

You can consume any amount

 or so you think but you cannot.

Your thought process has gone to pot.

You’ve had too much and you will rue.

Much more than is good for you.

Tomorrow morning you will pay.

Hangovers can last all day.

How's your head now my friend? LOL ! I enjoyed the read and had a chuckle!
Well written and I liked the subject matter, one that could have
volumes written about it. You have tackled the problem of the "hangover"
so eloquently! Now go and "have a hair of the dog that bit you" and a good
lie down!! rotfl
