Not quite a poem as much as a drunken confession

Getting drunk by yourself is only depressing

if you realize it

-

You’re friends aren’t picking up

and are having parities

without you

-

Drink

listen to punk rock and gangster rap

And soon enough

you won’t care anymore

-

You’ll realize that people

have been drinking alone

for centuries

-

And there’s nothingĀ 

depressing

about history

-

right?
