Just One More Sip

just so you know

I’ll be needing one more sip

before I go

I know where

you want to take me

so let’s avoid a row

but before I go

another sip I’ll need

for my suppossed

misdeed

if you must know

I’m sipping

an expensive Bordeaux

on this nice night

the last thing

I want is a fight

step back boyos

and I’ll finish my wine

then you can take me

anytime

A toast to him, a tip for the UBER driver to take him home.
Nice Dave. Cheers
