Drinking, Smoking and Screwing

 

I dos done and kisses shared
love exchanged pledged forever
golden circles on both their fingers
bond to stay through thick and thin

forever is not too long
when familiarity sets to contempt
the snores, the farts, the bad breath
vulgarity, short unsatisfying bed romp

the cocktails look good
the vodka finer with juice
the whiskey swirled among rocks
made her look like a siren

the buzz of beer and other spirits
hunked him up to her desire
his stale breath perfume
after a bottle of chardonnay

spirits so fine and mary-jane too
together they wrapped their dissatisfaction
in their drinks in their smokes
end up doing what they do best

screw it, they say, let’s just do it
to forget.
