The Numbing Ways of Life
I can’t see.
I’m already
Three
Tequila
Shots
in.
I don’t know her but
She’s beautiful,
With gorgeous eyes,
And full lips.
I just met him
and
He’s nice,
Cute even.
How long
Is this going to take?
“It’s late
I should head home”
I say.
“Don’t”
I take her hand
And lightly touch
her arm.
I shudder.
His touch
Tickles my skin.
I like it,
I think.
