I’M SOBER NOW

I’m sober now.

Wish I had been last night.

I wouldn’t feel so bad this morning.

I don’t even remember leaving the party.

I do remember

  • Gripping the wheel
  • Staring straight ahead
  • Trying so hard
  • Not to go too fast
  • Or go off the road.

I notice there’s a big dent

  • In my front fender.

I sure don’t remember that.

I asked my wife about it.

She just shook her head

  • And said it was there
  • When she got up.

My head sure hurts.

I wonder when I got that dent?

I guess probably I’ll never know.


Johnnie just came in with

  • The morning paper.

The headlines read


  • “DEATH BY HIT AND RUN”.
