Field Sobriety Test by David Boski


congratulations
you quit smoking;
please make sure
you post your anniversaries
on social media
every year,
we’re all so very impressed.
oh, you haven’t had a drink in
15 years either?
cool, post about that too,
that just means there’s
more for the rest

thank you;
you’re no better than
anybody else,
you have your vices too;
just look
in the mirror,
you
hypocritical
fat
fuck.
