i have a friend who's drunk at three

every day of the week;

she says she loves feeling like that

more than anything else on earth.

.

i never quite believed her

but one day she was drunk

and she said the same thing,

looking me straight in the eye.

.

during that sober second of contact

i realised she meant every single word

she loves being drunk

more than anything else on earth.

.

am i sad for her?

am i happy for her?

i am happpy and i am sad

but not for her, no...
