Despite what his words tell a friend
His hands reach out to the liquor
As if it contains the cure for his failures

Of all the pain this poison will bring
To him, his wife and their children
Everyone who...

THE MAIDEN:
My little Juliette,
my hand floating over her back;
and her tiny hand with mine.
Now, we all sing songs to Capulet.

that power of...

I hear the murmurring 
I know they are talking about me
I see the intentional whispers
The subtle avoidance at my presence
Like an outcast leper they walk around
The blatant use of conversation enders
Like " oh theres so and so, i gotta go"
I arrive alone and leave alone.
God...

You hear voices in the bar room, making merry, making a toast
They have offices and homes, but here is where they laugh most
Men from all walks of life, united under the banner of strong drinks
Here you can be yourself without caring what the world thinks

Many years ago before I became a man
When i was just a boy having his fun
I had a grandmother whom i thought would never die
She would sit outside her house as I played by

Wine is a mocker, strong drink
is raging: and whosoever is
deceived thereby is not wise
Prov. 20:1

Darkened oxidation
		 changing personality
Liquid fermentation
	altering perception of reality
Look long into the bottle,
you see fire in the water
It burns you as you swallow,
your memory now getting shorter
Release the genie from the lamp,

The joys and pleasures of drinking
Having been asleep and submerged
Re-awakened and buoyed up
As a herald of the great war within
Never ceasing but ravaging my soul
A wave tossed to and fro
by winds of wisdom and foolishness 

Tipsy and drowsy I stumbled
fell and broken, snared and taken
Bruised...

writers block is a big scare

what if we could write and write
without needing to stop to breathe

It is always difficult when we can't think
the words are blocked from coming...
