The Liquor Bottle
       
     Conical at the top beautiful sides offers it support
     Like a forest of oak trees in a bar, beautiful patterns they create
     The shining reflective glass reveals the attracting liquid content
     Salivating onlookers surround the container, ready to pounce on it
     Like hungry man eaters, the opening pop sound they eagerly wait
     That beautiful liquor bottle slowly turns you into a sluggard

      Sweet, smoothing and addictive taste it has, others may say
      Your heart, liver, brain and whole body, useless it will make
      Inviting cancer, creating hangovers and bad moods, that’s the part it will play
      Heavy clinic bills and short lifespan, that’s the price you will pay,
      But finally in a six by four and seven feet underground you will lay
      That beautiful liquor bottle slowly turns you into a sluggard	

      In the young and able men of the society we can’t rely
      In dirty waters, by roadside and in dangerous dens they lie
      Family fights and broken marriages have become the main cry
      Then your friend death knocks at your door very early 
      It’s under that green large tree, your remains we will burry
      That beautiful liquor bottle slowly turns you into a sluggard

      Future doctors, sportsmen and leaders, in alcohol they dance
      Fathers, mothers and whole society, let’s stop this menace
      By doing so, development, ability and intelligence we will enhance
      Institutions will grow and have a society that runs
      We dream of the best society, but do we see it at glance?
      That beautiful liquor bottle slowly turns you into a sluggard

                                  ( By Ngugi Waweru)
