three martinis

to be dizzy, light headed
and woozy 
rising from the chair
one drink
too many under your belt,
empty
on nourishment, but full
of self.
you grab the nearest
rail, the wall,
a fare damsel, who bids you
farewell, and you ask,
what no kiss, as you go
off into that good night,
tripping down the long
stairwell.
