"Jostling 20's"

Sleeping visions of clutching drinks
diminished stares as we all go under.
Held captive charms of the jostling
20's stirred up by wishes of a  
passing thought.
Push and shove
bite to rough.
Hit miss and maybe
of a bloke that looks like a
lady alluring indeed
to the naked eye of pie.
Alcohol cascades from taps
to much merriment of
festive revelers
all over the country
there mouths become
dry waiting for there
festive nectar.
The drunk tank is prepped
the jail remains open
the riot van sleeps quietly
on a lay by undisturbed
to drunken disturbance.
Stolen police horses
coupled with policeman's
helmets that look like tits
kick me signs and empty
bottles of wine are dispatched
at random.
Kebabs bathed in grease
make interesting bedfellows
for the jostling 20's
Puddles of increasing emptiness
appear on street corners
and become part of the scenery.
The weekend had landed
but has now flown away  
flight plan laid in
course corrected
the weekend will return again
next Saturday.
