Gisa Wierzchowski

Drunk

Have you ever looked at a man
in the street and wondered what happened?
When did his luck change?
Then you look around you...
Your friends, you colleagues
No one is born a miserable old git!

Have you ever looked at an old woman in a pub
and wondered what happened?
When did they first call her a drunk?
Then you look around you...
Your friends, your colleagues
Are some just destined to loose?

Have you ever sat in a bar with your colleagues
and wondered why don’t they stop?
When is it teenage oats sewing
and when is it too often too much?

You’re 25 and you look around
When should you ask them why?
When do you walk away?
