I'Ll Have Another, and Keep'Em Comin'

In awe and angst, my Mind exploding- Near to truth, but nothing knowing! In Sadness sought, my Soul is sewing; Weaving woes my Heart bestowing Exhausted brain, too drained for thinking, For in Wells of Worry I am sinking... I might as well just keep on drinking- And all around me, Poets singing Songs of old and tunes of yore- Words that torch me to my core One more draught, dropped to the floor, And I can hear their Hymns no more... *Pardon Me, Did you Just...Contest Entry ~JustLivingLies

Line 5 is weak and problematic; any suggestions?

I certainly enjoy your rhyming and wit throughout. Very nicely structure and a great pleasure to read. :) We can sure get and feel so lost when it comes to alcohol and a part of us sometimes wants to be lost, but it aint worth it... Always, Laura

Ironic indeed... I turned the computer on and started writing. Then I read it after I posted it and saw yours? That has been happening to me a lot lately? Yea... I've been trying to stay away from that train. But when it comes a calling, it's hard to ignore that damn whistle! :o) Nice write... Thanks for the comment.
