This is an example for my next contest.
I've done some crazy stuff in my life, and this is just one of the crazy things that I have done when I was a teenager. I'm sure most of you had some crazy fun as a teen. Ah..to be young again.
Occasionally I'll have a beer or two...
But never do I get drunk
Except one time in my early years...
When I was a wild teen-age punk
My friends and I bought a keg of beer...
To go party and to have some fun
We drank, and drank, all night long...
Until the keg was done
We partied at my parents house...
When they left for the night
They went away for their anniversary...
So the timing seemed just right
Nearly one hundred friends came over...
To my planned up backyard bash
We drank our beer, and smoked our pot...
Then, most went home to crash
But before the night was over...
We played a game of dare
I was so drunk, for twenty bucks...
I shaved off my eye brow hair
Man, did i look funny...
With no eye brows on my face
So I stole my sister's mascara
From her "fix me up" make-up case
I painted on new eye brows...
Thinking it would look alright
Boy oh boy, was I so wrong, because...
It turned out, my idea was not so bright
I had to go to work in the morning...
To sell push-cart Ices in the park
My hours were from eleven a.m.
Until, the day got dark
With the sun beating down upon my face
The mascara dripped and smeared
No wonder why, everyone who looked at me
Had looked at me...so weird (lol)
So, when ever I drink beer these days...
I'll never drink to get drunk again
Funny, how I can now laugh about those times...
That had happened way back when
