Swimming In a Pool of Error

In my head, alcohol and its pall for callousness call Emboldened by froth and wrath In a show of gangrene gall in a mall To distort my faith and misquote my oath. Emboldened by froth and wrath In an atmosphere teeming with terror To distort my faith and misquote my oath Anger sinks into a swimming pool of error. In an atmosphere teeming with terror Worsened by pomp and pretence Anger sinks into a swimming pool of error Snapping any semblance of competence. Worsened by pomp and pretence In a show of gangrene gall in a mall Snapping any semblance of competence In my head, alcohol and its pall for callousness call.
