GOLDFISH GIRL
hey!
goldfish girl!
will you never learn
look a rock
look a rock
look a rock
look another glass of wine
and then another
don't you remember
what you said last night
about the need
to stop
another bottle
and a lovely glass
no need to ask
about the consequences
until
the numbers roll around
to half-past three
inexorably
and there you are
again
old goldfish girl
gasping flailing promising
to change
to act your age
to turn the page
to show some brain.
