Ever
gallantly
drink down
a half a container
of cranberry juice
in the middle of the
night
cause you’re
so goddamn thirsty
from the drunk you had
about an hour ago.
and then you realize
the drunk was off
cran & vod
and you want to hurl
but you don’t
cause your gag reflex
is too weak.
& so you suck it up
& go back to sleep.
but next time,
you’ll swear to God
you’ll go for the gatorade.
