drinking at home alone Aug. 28, 2012

  

Is it a problem

She asks

If she drinks

Alone at home,

This after

I told her

I could not

Get a drink

With her

That night,

And all

That has transpired since,

The drinks

We eventually

Did have together,

(and maybe even

Those we had apart)

And the bars

We went to

And the one

I left her in,

Both of us

On the edge

Of something

Maybe neither

Of us understood, and how much

(and often)

I needed

To drink along

And at home,

Wondering if

She was

Doing so, too.

I think back

That that

Lonely trek

 Up the hill

And wonder

How much less

Might have

Transpired had

I stayed,

Cuckhold

A side show

How crushed

I might have felt

If she’d left

With the bartender

Instead of me

Or with

The German couple

For a three some

Or all five

For an orgy,

Oh,

How twisted my mind

Gets when I

Drink alone

At home.
