If you’re not careful
someone might notice
your hair
even go as far
as complementing it
but it wasn’t my fault
the pool tables were busy
or that a forty-something divorcee
stuck her tongue
down my student
discount
throat
the morning after
having to admit
the lamination
on my fake ID
wasn’t going to hold
much longer
