Greg Hoffman Poet Quintain (English)

Losing Proposition

Losing Proposition

Alcohol can really wreck your life
The list of friends will constantly shrink
It cost me my job,I lost my wife
So I tried to sober up,then think
Oh hell,just have one more little drink



Hard Choices contest/Dr. Ram Mehta
