Wobbles
I sit here on this rotating place of rest,
my feet firmly planted on the brass rail.
My dear friend polishes his chalice
as he listens intently to the stories
from us all.
Tales of trials and tribulations,
imparting his knowledge when needed.
Here, I spend my days
no where else to go.
Slowly, I empty my coffers
with each mug I finish
trying to ease my soul
with the tarnished foamy juice.
I lose myself in my own thoughts.
I soften the pain with its' effects.
once my pockets are empty,
and my head is full.
I puch away
and head for the dorr.
I wobble down the street to my bed.
