pepsi will never do…
tingles upon my tongue—
the bubbles satisfying
a craving that once stung.
the caramel liquid swishes
around behind my lips.
i always sip on diet:
less inches for my hips.
and when i finally swallow
my favorite of drinks,
i feel the caffeine charge me
with vigor like a lynx.
without a Coke-a-Cola,
i’m gawky and inept—
but with my favorite beverage
I am, frankly, adept.
for one to win me over
a twelve-pack will suffice,
but if you want to be friends,
a twenty-four pack is the price.

I can totally relate to the whole multiple drinks per meal. When my grandparnts take me out to dinner they always gawk as I chug down water after water, soda after soda and tea after tea. Of course I make sure a place has free-refills before I order anything but water. Mainly because I could honeslty drink glass after glass and still be thirsty.
This sounds pretty familiar except for I prefer a different caffeine filled drink. I have no idea what I would do without Mountain Dew, the greatest pop ever made. I could probably replace that with milk or water, but that would probably not be a good idea. I also have to have more than one drink when I eat any sort of meal. I dont understand the people that could go a whole entire meal with a drink of anything.
