Mitch White Poet Light Verse

The Worst Morning After

The one time when I tried Southern Comfort
Was in a drinking game or something of the sort
I remember my right eye wouldn't open
My temples were pounding like a drum 

All I could see was red
So I reached for my head
Then I realized I had no hair
Reeling, I crawled for the mirror

When I found the bathroom, I grabbed the sink 
I pulled myself up to see letters in black ink
My forehead was throbbing so bad
I focused to read what it said 

I'm pretty sure I screamed something out loud 
It said "DRUNK ASS - YOU PASSED OUT'
