come on, it's the holidays, get drunk with us

people

look at you suspiciously

when

you say no

to a drink.

it's a holiday party after all.

they raise their eyebrows,

and open

their mouths

with a look of surprise.

wine?

maybe a martini?

no, i don't drink anymore,

haven't had

a drink

in ages.

what's wrong with you?

you're no fun

anymore.

come on,

you're falling behind, everyone

here is drinking

but you.

you can take an Uber home,

or spend the night

in the guest room.

here, how about some punch?

although i have to 

warn you,

Martha has a heavy pour

when it comes

to Tanqueray and Vermouth.
