DRUNK SONNET 4

COME ON, YOU PEOPLE, EVERYTHING IS OK
THE CHILDREN ARE ASLEEP AND THE DOGS ARE ASLEEP
AND MY STOMACH AND HEAD ARE CONNECTED IN THIS WAY
THAT I CAN HEAR THOUGHTS LIKE PIZZA CHOKING BEER

OBVIOUSLY, THE ROOM IS SHAKING A LITTLE
TELL ME IT'S NOT, YOU ARE A LIAR IT SHAKES, BIG TIME
I AM CONTENT AND THAT IS GOOD, BUT LONELY
I REMEMBER HOW THE BODY TASTES AND HOW HARDLY GONE IT IS

TOMORROW I WILL WAKE UP AND GO TO WORK FOR A TRAINING
I WILL LISTEN AND I WILL NOD MY HEAD AND THAT'S THAT
I'LL LEAVE WORK AND LEAVE WORK AND LEAVE WORK

AND I'LL LEAVE WORK AND EAT SOME CHEAP FOOD AND I KNOW
THAT MY HOURS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO MY MONETARY WORTH AND I WISH
I COULD BUY YOU SOMETHING FOR YOUR TIME BUT IT'S GONE
