Hi t,

This is so funny that I can't stop reading it. Actually I do the same, I drink a glass of wine before bedtime. It's my doctor's fault as he said I should drink red wine...so I do and I enjoy it way too much (grin) I wish I had one more six for you. TOO FUNNY! chey

I only drink on
those days ending with a "Y" Very funny or sad maybe
where is the problem

Any excuse to get drunk ...The 'Happy Hour' personified.
A lonely solitary drinker perhaps? In any event well composed. Meets all strictures.

Regards:

I'll give "W's" for this. Why, Where? and with Who?

I believe there is no problem with this as long as what you drink ends in "OL" and not ""cide." I'll drink to the meaningful 3 lines.

However, I can see where the problem is. I assumed you have a drinking problem. But how you dress on your drinking days creates a difficulty. It is not easy to sip from a glass when you face is covered by a shawl.

I hope I catch the humor - again, I'll drink to that.

    Thanks for your read, shared details, candid/cryptic comments and personal remarks. No, I don't have a drinking problem myself, but I recently had a "near beer" while serving as a designated driver. :)

hello

isn't it fascinating how one entry can inspire another
I have just read the other entry

your format is in true count and form
the theme speaks for itself
the presentation well illustrated
the words are clever and clearly stated
the message has been received

thank you for sharing
drinking is a disease and not a weakness
but the fact remains there is a problem
it takes over the person

enjoy the afternoon
ann marie

Your poem is in excellent 5/7/5 syllable count
It uses the kind of satiric humor I expect from the senryu form
I like the use of question that engages the reader
