Hungover

What have I done?
I’ve had too much fun
My mind is blank
My hair smells rank
I roll out of bed
Pounding in my head
The clank of glass bottles
Still wearing beer goggles
Stumble with gloom
To the mirror in the bathroom
I take a look 
both deep and superficial
I look bleak
Mascara on my cheek
From tears shed
Stamp on my forehead
Branded a fool
Clues to where I've been
Look for my phone
But I'm not alone
I'm not at home
I just realized
What’s my prize?
Winner Winner
Chicken Dinner
Guess I’m a sinner
Now for the walk of shame
Shoot this whorse
She's become lame

This poem kind of reminds me of an Amy Winehouse video. I have had my moments. In this poem, raw honesty is your greatest tool. You give way more than is expected. I like your style Liberty...Keep the poems coming. PS or it reminds me of Carrie Underwood- Don't even know my last name song...

Did you party with the fraternity brothers of Delta House at Faber College? Nice descriptiveness in rather simple wording. I would consider this entry a "rhyme".

I suppose you're right. I guess I've gotten used to putting I don't know on everything. I'm pretty lazy that way. lol "If my love were a chicken it'd have no bones...." got to love animal house.
