The 'Fling

 (For those that read into my poetry, this is completely fictional.)

It was Spring Fling. It was legal. The campus expected us to be a complete and royal shitfaced mess. It was ok to have

bottles filled to 
brim. A shot of run. Bodies
lay on rugged stairs.

I had lost count of my drinks. That was the first mistake. I had been crowned Champion of Beer Pong for the night. I could put that on a resume, right? But who is the boy laying next to me? I was not looking for love. His tossled hair screaming

sweat. Heated kisses.
Two animals on the Discovery
Channel, biting, mating.

What had I done? Had I remembered my birth control? Oops. Maybe it was time for a trip to CVS. The sunshine struggled to reach me through the blinds, light for the future. It blinded me as I pushed it away. The future hurt.
