Booze Flirting

Courageous and bold even with the mantle of responsibilities
wine in total control riding on his powerful lust
a man is a man- is the comfort trapped in each misleading bottle
come rain, come shine its acute satisfaction is a must
its just mere liquid but so loved and a needed companion
penetrating through his unconscious surrender to snatch much trust
as the outside is at rest, the inside gets heavily agitated
senses standing on weak rods b’cos the Irons are facing a rust
one more risky step to insanity turns death on
the gutter, the stones, even opportunists he nears his home of dust
a pleasant zone, the soul’s analgesia and needed amnesia
the rocky side of reality only swells waiting for his next awareness to burst.
