Not Again!

The Retired Bloke

The banging of my head

As I lay here in my bed

Signals it was a good night

However this is despite 

 

Not really remembering 

The finer details surrounding

What got me to this point

I’m hoping I didn’t disappoint

 

My wife with my behaviour 

Toast and tea my saviour

When I poured into the house

Failing to be as quiet as a mouse

 

This was a not again night

Where next time I might

Show a little more self control

To drink a lot less my goal.

  • Comment from author about the poem: For someone who is only an occasional drinker this has been quite a week. Unlike earlier in the week, a dinner last night in Manchester, culminated in the hangovers of all hangovers this morning.
