drunk
i feel like a fool
like i need to be watched
like a child
crying as i vomit into a garbage can
with hands rubbing my back
holding my hair
a voice suddenly soft
whispering calmness
as bile, beer, & chinese food fly singing
from my mouth
from my nose
a symphony for my drowned senses
until i fall sobbing into a warm lap
exhausted and defeated
accepting my idiocy and my aching head
