Drinking Contest

Tony36

2 competitors

100 shots of whiskey each

One by one

They down their glass

Until one of them

Falls on their ass

.

Words get said

Words are slurred

Some words are not even heard

 

Still they go

One after the other.

Drunken and sad

Shot after shot

Until one passes out

    A poem that literally I have seen but in metaphor it applies to many other things. Nicely written Tony

        Yep, that'd be the way, methinks. Nothing like many of the foolish activities we engage in for the challenge and fun of it, eh? Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
