Both above and under the ground
You can bet a beer
Alleviates fear
But cops count how many you've downed...

Dear-Slayer
The words, they echoed in his ear
He forced a smile, and downed a beer
"We're finished, darling dear," she'd said
Her voice, the knife that left him dead...

The Storm Passes
The storm has worn itself out
leaving downed trees and flooded streets,
while the fullness of the moon
has clothed itself in a ring
of cloud induced rainbows....

The Hayne Plane
The Hayne plane took America by storm,
The Yanks soon realised he was not the norm,
He dodged through gaps
As he downed his flaps,
The opposition looked quite forlorn....

Shall I Compare Thee To a Summer's Day
Shall I compare thee to a hellish hound?
Thou art more lovely but of the same mind.
Rough winds may shake you but you won’t be downed.
As summer divided us, I was blind....

Bullwinkle's End
The journey began in Kigali,
but came to an end at Denali:
it started off Rocky,
but downed with some Sake,
grilled moose makes the perfect tamale.

Munching On Munchies
Once knew a gal from Geneva
Downed the biggest glass of tequila
Stripped down to her undies
While munching on munchies
Next day she claimed she had amnesia

Donald Trump
President Donald Trump
nabbed his title landing a long jump.
Now, we daily leap his every jerky tweet
that even pigeons want downed by skeet.

Baptism of Ducks
BAPTISM OF DUCKS
Waves shake little boat, smug ducks out at sea.
They sing drinking songs, rambunctious with glee.
Rising waves, quicker,
with more downed liquor.
Unloaded ducks drink. The waves set them free.

That Pesky Fly
THAT PESKY FLY
There's a darn pesky fly in my lounge
On every object, it is bound
With fly swatter in hand
On the floor it did land
With great joy, the darn fly has been downed

Playing Pretend
When days are like all others-
Downed and drowned and smothered
I head back beneath my covers,
And pretend to be another
For someone else is who I am
(A child that plays a Man)
But all the while I understand-
I'd never write with another's hand...

Chilled Chaser
back then, younger summer evenings,
we ate crabs, oysters, shrimp fillings
chased and downed, my dear,
with Mexican beer,
shortcomings, but no misgivings !...

Those Slow Trains In My Downed Days
Those slow trains in my downed days
were so adventurous and relaxing,
I wasn't traveling into a dark tunnel
and focus on a novel: my view was bright;
I was getting somewhere: jotting down
words from thoughts that were so lively!

Addict
he downed his last beer
when last call for alcohol
echoed through the bar
driving home, he called his wife
crashed his car and lost his life.
