Best Sobers Poems

Dinner was over an hour ago
Counters wiped clean, dishes are washed and dried
I hold my glass up to the light like a color slide,
and see the world, warped, and blurred through the half glass of rosy wine
It makes everything seem clearer somehow, and sobers the...

Who are we really?  It’s my nature to—to what and how do we know it’s our nature, an inherent part of us? “The Scorpion and the Frog” an animal fable, teaches hurting others even when it is not in their own interests because the...

He could be someone’s father
Or brother
Or friend.
He could be
The one to cure cancer,
The one who
Saves a child
From a burning building,
The one who
Sobers up
And leads
Others to
Do so as well.
But right now,
He’s a drunk
Who has probably
Spent all of his money
On booze,
The one
Who is ungrateful,
The one who
Won’t remember,
The...

~As The Clouds Dance In The Sky~
( Free  Flow )


As the clouds
Move in the sky
I can see their shadows
Dance and play
They shrink and
Expand in diverse sizes
Till they fade away 
Or change their disguise

Little by little 
I recognize 
A few shapes 
Till they get lost
In...

Slenderly community 
The land of sobers
Enough for plunderers 
Ground of Ivory
Home of diamond and gold
Is now Magufulized 

No more embezzling
Lazy are working
Respecting their roles
No more liquoring  
This is the land
We all dreamed by

Reviving the airline
Is the biggest witchcraft 
7 wings were booked 
5 have...

Through all my changes I was a dreamer
  and lived a trepidation and a ruse,
but when she lay bare and I between her
  I lived the dream in my puberty blues.
In a rush of young blood in curves and curls
  between the...

So my first lesson taught me, if intellect spawns logic, then of that I want no part! 
“Orwell” Had the answer;
in satire the presidium displeased, when he made it plain to everyone,
one cannot rule with precision as one would a farm yard,
whilst to break life...

A commoner King usurps the crown
   Marries a blueblood of royal renown
Drunk as can be, in an imperial mood
   Orders the Queen to appear stark nude
Before his commoner friends, no less
   She refuses, of course, precipitating a mess

The King...

What if I told you the sky was purple 
and that the clouds were really a dark green 
could you imagine the luscious possibility 
Or is your mind a reality check machine 

Take a trip into your subconscious 
maybe what you see is a dream...

I made my way across the drunken pavement,
Glimpsing at the sun, which kindly offered a watery beam.
The sweet, earthy air filling my lungs,
As the weary clouds crawl aside to reveal,
Behind that translucent wall of wisp,
A stream of rich shade,
Stretching across the hazy blue canvas.
I pause,...

She's a rhapsodic tale of might
beyond falu dynamics sailing
through heartbreak's stormy
strikes and Lupus fight. 
In an exchange of blows with 
darkness, she steams in granite, 
kindness gleams in a tempo of battles.

A legend true, her arms zaffre. 
I watch her cool her scars in a
spaniel...

I remember the man.

He is the best friend that one could ever have,                     
he truly knows me like the palms of his hands;  ...
