Party Favors

Spin the bottle ... give some unlucky lips a drunken kiss Pin the tail on the donkey; though you didn’t miss on purpose you bosom grope insist, when you stagger slipped Tilt the bottle ... pour liquid social stumbles into short cups Place your hand on a spandex rear end, and get a five-finger hard slap on cheek rebuff Now some hubby is miffed Romance the bottle ... as you begin serenading the lamp, the room starts spinning darkly too Then you go doggy low, and heave-ho on the carpet floor Wiping your mouth on some pretty leggings, sitting on a barstool nearby you That gets you the bouncer lift Don’t give party favors nobody asked for Or you might get a swift boot in the behind, and a hard kick out the door Even worse, you might get a sore jaw and a liniment-approved black eye Gaze into the crystal bottle ... and understand the pariah reason why

Ahhh you captured the days of my youth my friend. Too man by slaps and bouncer black eyes to recall. Love the creativeness of the party favors line!

I gave it up when I became a daddy. Don't drink and don't miss it. However, there was a time... Love the "party favor" very original. Nice write Freddie.

Wow! Heavy stuff,...and Real! I wanna say that this is the 2018 update of some scenes from The Jungle, by Upton Sinclair, esp. the episode where Jurgis pals around with a spoiled rich kid and wounds up getting thrown out into the cold night...This one's right 'there,' Freddie. Way to go! ~Gershon
