Zero Bottles o’ Beer
brian daly
They refused Brenda
drink tonight,
so she sits and smokes
with dark eyes
while we plot revenge
on a surly waitress.
They don’t want us
wage earners here
in the Fat Cat Pub.
“Police crackdown”
is their excuse...
so honest drunks
with no ID
can’t drink
where they used to.
Oh, hell...
hassles with the help
is not what we need.
We need beer
for beautiful
black-haired
grey-haired
Brenda.
