Red Wine (2009)

Take another sip, girlfriend,
of that red wine
for a brief time
your delusion is real

The buzz will wane
your headache will remain
screaming at you to get it together

Daylight hours reveal a woman strong
a beauty warped when
reflected in your own eyes
so you yearn to cover your head
lay alone in a full size bed
for a world of only you and him

but come one, girl
these scenarios never transpire
how many more times
will you waste nights
making love to invisibility
do I need to remind you
imagination is not so safe

Wait...

Girlfriend, pour me a glass
of that red wine
I think I need a sip
