she warned.
Piss off I like the placement of this line
I thought
I won’t dear I think this line should not be itilsed. It feels like its what you are thinking due to the first line
I said.

But five drinks in
I think I’m 17 again. Should this line be in the second stanza?

A non-smoker cadging fags, Fags? That is a powerful and offensive word. It seems like it was just thrown in. My emotions are running high. Let see why you used that phrase. Fags- the British term for cigarette. (Faggots- British term for meatballs)
swallowing shot glasses 
then another pint,

for Springsteen and Motorhead,
I air guitar my way to the
wrong side of another day.I still don't see anything resolve on why you said anytihng about gay people. You are just takling about getting wasted. I feel like the first line of the stanza throws the poem into a tailspin

leaned towards me

I'm 52 again

Thanks to all for the really helpful feedback all used to form the edit sorry so late getting back very much appreciated. Keith
