Postcard Poetry: Day 21




Translation:
_____

With Vodka

This morning I wanted to add
vodka to my cereal, but 
didn't. An hour later, 
helping customers find plate
settings for twelve, I wished
I had drank the vodka.
One woman who couldn't find
her coupon (but was in a
"giant rush") said I looked
calm in the face of adversity.
I calmly told her to go to
hell, and walked right out.
That didn't happen, but it
could have, with vodka. /

  1. LOVED this one! Just switch out "cereal" for "OJ" and replace "place settings with "skinny jeans" and I'm right there with you.
    Rock on, Lady!
