311. the office party
music & laughter
balloons & poppers
Lambrusco
in plastic tumblers
crisps & nuts
mistletoe & halitosis
lipstick smudges
knowing glances
& furtive fumblings
and a snail’s trail
right across
the photocopier glass
& caught on CCTV no less
the socially inept
the lairy reps
– there’ll be some bad heads
in the morning
and some smiles and regrets
I daresay.
