Dead BeerA Story by Katie MarieI'm not really sure what this is about. Lonliness and drinking, probablyYou don't see a camera gripped in my hand but I see a perfect image of you standing there. Cigarette in hand and the moon on a chain around your neck, your red nails protruding through the night. You drink your beer and pretend we're not here. You'd rather be drinking alone in your room, thinking about life and those very few you wish were here. Your ex boyfriend with the arm of tattoos. Your friend with no common sense. The guy from the bar who spoke about rum and sat by himself. And your very first dog. But you can't have those things, they're as dead as that cigarette you just tossed to the ground. So you stand here instead, pretending to make friends. Sipping your beer and torturing your lungs. Well I'm not as dead as those friends you once had; I think you're pretty and I'd like to take you home instead. © 2013 Katie Marie |
