I wake with a view of grass
my face impressed
with rooting lines
red with pressure
and regret

My wet clothes attest to rain
soaking my sleep
my pillow arm
still fast asleep
angrily numb

A reward for a hard week
reducing my post
to ground level
but it was fun
before I passed out

Fun is percieved, changing
with age, for some
but others keep spinning the bottle
before tipping it back
and living inside

JamesBowie, you made being drunk, passing out, not really know where you are, sound almost like fun.  ME
