160 Sheets to the Wind

(Photo: Grey Goose Vodka)

Some say Merlot.
Some say Pinot.
But I say cosmo,
And so do I.

Tomorrow is Sunday.
And Monkey Man awaits.
I have to say something.
And so do I.

Got a 160?
And so do I.

*************************************

At least I can still count.  This was written (while under the influence of having been a wee bit "overserved") for Sunday 160, hosted by Monkey Man here.

  3. Is "overserved" meaning too much salad? Must cut back on that stuff. Have some more 'cosmo noir'

    PEACE!

  5. Sorry, but after 25+ years of not drinking and not being much of an aficionado of drinks even when I was an active alcoholic, I have to admit I have no idea what a cosmo is. Oh, well, I still liked your 160. :)

  7. Steve: A fruit "salad," perhaps. You know, grain, oranges, cranberries, lime. i should feel healthier, right?

    Tracy: It's very rare one can catch the muse so, um, relaxed, so I took advantage of it.

    PG: It sounds like having abstinence is a conscious decision on your part. And for that, I say bravo. My dad was an alcoholic, so I really watch it. Which is perhaps why the two drinks last night was one drink too many.

    Mary: Thanks. Cosmos both look and taste taste pretty.

    Mama Zen: Thanks. I probably should have waited until morning to write my 160, but that was just silly enough that I thought, hey, what the heck.

    Janice: Yeah, me too.

  9. Like a shot, 160s come in small glasses; high octane poetry.

  12. Killer cosmos, huh? Didn't impair your ability to poeticize, though.

  18. Amazing how clever when we just sit down and write ... something comes. As for me, I'll take city gin (tap water). :-) I'm a boring old soul. :-)
