Drink
I scratch the itch to ease the pain
If you like, have a drink, no shame
of being one. Has and was, coming at you
thirst for more, just one maybe two.
We don't count them, trick the mind
cursed this monkey to hell and back, for boundaries to find
to search for, not finding oneness
and glasses and bottle empty, powerless.
Mornings hold evenings dread
to swallow song aloud my head
offend some, some brought back to peace
some do other things looking release.
Everyone gets something, of comforts line
no linguistic wars, soul tapping the spine.
A parody on control, creating a memory
drinking to forget, ones daily accessory.
