Drunk

let’s be honest.
drinking solves no problems.
you drink, you forget…
for a few hours?
a few days?
a few weeks?
a few months?
maybe a few years?

but in the end the problem is still there.
along with the pain.
along with the stress.
along with the battle.

& a drink solves nothing, a drink is liquid
procrastination.
of life’s natural obstacles.
