PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’m at the Irving Plaza

for a show

and I get chatting

with a young lady.

She wants to smoke a J

and I’m more than happy

to provide one.

She’s really cute

and my eye is catching

her furtive glances.

She offers me

a pull on her beer

which is a Coors Light

I know she’s being nice

and I might offend her

if I say no

so I take a couple swigs

and thank her kindly.

It’s tit for tat

or doobie for beer.

You know I must

 really like the girl

if I’m willing

to drink a cheap beer

just to avoid

hurting her feelings

Lord knows I don’t

need the buzz that bad
