GIN & TONIC SONNET by Jeff Callaway


GIN AND TONIC SONNET

kick back and relax in fact it’s your time
to buy a gin and tonic with a lime
and while you’re up you could refill my cup
and please bartender turn that jukebox up
‘cause today has been a really rough day
and here’s to Dean and Sammy by the way
and to that blonde at the end of the bar
what a dream come true blue far away star
whose boot scoot blues would move closer to me
in sweet release drunk in spurs let us be
she can see drunks are not all such bad guys
not all nice suits and new ties are best buys

but gin and tonic man says to your face
how bout sex, drugs, rock-in-roll and my place
