Let Er Rip

As I had mentioned earlier, dear friend, I had undergone counseling abundant; Preparing me mentally, psychologically, My mentor had to treat me physically; Functioning of my internal organs checked, Malfunctions, with medications, wrecked; Detoxifications of chemical contents done, All that was weakening me were undone; He filled me, then, with bouquets of advice, Which I treasured as life’s greatest prize; The taxi I had hired to take me home back, Had advertisements of my favorite J.W black; ====== ==== I’ve given up drink of alcoholic nature now, I do not eat anything junk in character as vow; My temptations are, indeed, very strong, Especially my brand, whose name in me gong; I just say to myself: I will not drink today, Every today goes on passing on every day. 08 July 2021 LET ER RIP #3 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: John lawless

People and vices. Nicely written poem touching on the darker side of addiction, struggle, and hope.
