Too Much To Drink Poem by Valerie Dohren
Too Much To Drink
I’ve had too much to drink tonight
I’m feeling rather funny
A glass of wine, a tot of Port
And Whisky mixed with honey
I thought that it would be okay
To take a little Brandy
But one small drink turned into two
And now I’m feeling randy
And then I took a swig of beer
To finish off my boozing
I know that was a big mistake
For now I feel like snoozing
To wake me up I feel I need
A mug of real black coffee
But being drunk and quite confused
It turned out like thick toffee
So what the heck, I think I’ll try
A schooner of that Sherry
The Vodka also looks quite nice
And now I’m feeling merry
I’ve had too much to drink tonight
I need the bathroom quickly
Its all gone to my silly head
I’m feeling rather sickly
And when the morning comes around
My head will feel quite tender
I know that I will so regret
I went on such a bender
The moral of this little tale
I hope will be explicit
It’s not a good idea to drink
Beyond one’s limit – IS IT! !
Stop while one is in a position to decide, otherwise limit exceeds.
Enjoyed this poem Valerie. You need a clear head to write such good verse!
I know this may seem risky and please don't hold it agin us there are less purines in whisky so my gout says, No more Guiness; ¬( Good fun poem, Valerie.
Love Diane's Lines about drinking more. These beautiful words enhanced my smile Valerie. I hope one day we will share a drink together. You give so much to this site, You closet boozer Who would have thought x
Intelligent and very well written poem, Val. Thank you for it. G.
You are so right. I think the best thing I have experienced was not having to drink one day. I had tried many times to stop. They all failed and I think I got worse each time. It was after I finally quit trying to stop drinking when the desire and the uncontrollable need to drink just died and one day I woke up at 10: 00 pm one night with money in my pocket and I realized I had forgotten to buy some booze before the store closed. I chose to go back to sleep instead of rushing to to store. This had never happened before. I take a few sips off of a beer like once every few months or so just because a group of people told me I could not do it without drinking all day and ending up drunk the way I was. Those people and those meetings were the reason I was such a bad drunk. All of the conditions they put on our drinking are what gives the booze so much power Every time they said I couldn't drink I got an overwhelming desire to drink. If someone got paid to follow you around all day and night. and tell you you had to drink a certain number of drinks every hour and they handed you the drinks you would rebel and refuse to drink because they wanted you to. If they told you you could not drink instead you would be sneaking around and plotting how to get drunk. I remember all of the days like the ones in your poem. The days of youth. I will take the easy way now though.I used to drink a case and a half of beer by myself and wake up 6 hours later and run three miles and do an hour and a half of working out almost every other day when I was in the navy. I never went on a ship I was in another part of the navy. How did I ever do it? Take it easy
Please, don`t drink like this, Valreie Or else Please, drink less oftener.. Diane, so you too drink like this!

Lol! I am feeling drunk on poetry. Just read couple of fun poems of two amazing writers. Now I must stop and get back to my work since being drunk is not such a great idea! Thanks Valerie for this light and lovely poem.
