Following the Doctor

The doctor said I should contain
My drinking woes
For soon I would have alcohol
Coming from my nose.
He suggested I only have
Two drinks every day
I agree whole-heartedly
But this I have to say:
I bank them up for Saturday night
Enough to get me screaming
I ensure I get my quota
And so I drink fourteen.
And each drink is now measured
With great and deliberate care
So that it’s now exactly a litre
On the floor – find me there.
