cup

I feel like a cup filled to the brim,
which I pick up to wipe the edge,
but with every movement,
more spills over.
I'm full of liquor, intoxicated with selfishness
and half life, bumping into others,
spiking their drinks,
saying, “Ease up a little”
and handing them keys to the limo.
(insp: Matthew 23:25)
