Poetry / “Holy water shot glass”
Holy water shot glass Intoxicating and excruciating, a baggy Bob Marley T-shirt hanging off your shoulder when we first met I felt I should be forced to walk a sidewalk straight line and touch an extended finger to my nose. On weekend barstools we alternated playing the game and arguing the rules with noContinue reading “Poetry / “Holy water shot glass””
