things that aren't humanly possible

i thank god for the space that exists between the words any and more
in the process of looking for what i might find at the end of the phrase
exceedingly drunk
but somehow not quite getting there
no matter the quantities of cold vodka
orange juice
there's a whole city full of stumbling drunk people rambling around
just outside the screens of these open windows
they move between sips
as i try to forget
each and every one
tonight the air is full of crisp cool contentment
as if the ocean were a blanket
like the lies i tell myself to sleep better at night
