Her hair <br />is perfect. <br /> <br />She's just <br />having a bad body day. <br /> <br />Feeling fragile <br />after yet another skin-full <br /> <br />bit the worse <br />for wear <br /> <br />(here...but not...all there) . <br /> <br />Feels a bit like France's <br />Charlesl the 6th <br />(aka Charles the Mad) <br /> <br />suffering the same <br />delusion as he did <br /> <br />that he was made <br />of glass. <br /> <br />Feels she should do as he did <br />(sew iron bars into his clothes) <br /> <br />to prevent himself <br />from shattering if he fell. <br /> <br />Never (she promises herself) never <br />ever again. <br /> <br />Her love affair with alcohol <br />is over. <br /> <br />She, determinded to be <br />sober....ouch...sooner <br /> <br />rather than later. <br /> <br />But, right now <br />there remains <br /> <br />this half drunk <br />(here we go again) <br />bottle of wine.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-got-the-charles-the-sixth-blues/
