Thirsty

by Stephanie Alfaia

You know the going is getting tough
when you walk into your apartment
and head straight for the fridge
cracking a Bud Light open with an
ahhh…
and realize you’re standing
in pitch black
except the light coming from the fridge
door you still hold open
with your left leg
in case you need to reach for
another.
