Easy

KEGAN MCFADDEN

From “Parlour Games,” excerpted in one cool word.

it’s easy:

you pour a mug of beer

& then a shot of bourbon.

you light a match

drop the shooter into the beer

& then pound it back

if your face catches fire,

you’ve done it wrong & should

probably not attempt any other

parlour games
