SLIGHTLY LESS OFFENSIVE

and so then

I pulled

the old pour

a 24 oz. Blue Point toasted lager

from Patchogue, NY

into a 24 oz. XL Dunkin’Donut

Styrofoam cup

so I could conceal

my transgression

I could sit on the train

and sneak sips

while creating the illusion

of drinking coffee

any environmentalist will tell you

Styrofoam is evil

and not biodegradable

and I can’t argue that point

but at least I found a way

to make it slightly less offensive

and inspire warped verse

to corrupt our youth
