Age: 19
Tequila
Waking with a Tequila Sunrise
hangover
racing through my head,
shaking me,
leaving me weak and uneasy.
Outside
there is no sunrise.
The rain had to come sometime -
Why not today?
The sky is gray
and I'm in a deep blue.
Even my clothes -
Blue jeans.
Background: When I was in college, the drinking age was 18. There were dances with drinks and nearby pubs that all of us took advantage of frequenting on weekends, only to discover the pain of a hangover.
