music on the wind
feelings on my shoulders
liquor on my breath

As the life evaporates,
The brew soothes the soul.

No Amount

No amount of liquor will
Drown my sorrow 

No amount of pain killers
Will ever numb the pain

And no matter how much I smoke
I'll never forget the memories.

Modern Man

Today's man,
Drinks liquor
as fish water,
Has vile language
enough to peel
wallpapers
off a wall;
And the moral of 
a stray alley cat,
The man adoring

A loathsome lecher lurks along the long,
Lightless ledge, looking to lure a lost lamb
To lewd license, liquor, and lowlife lurch—
To the lesser lying league and layer.

His mother's wedding

Oh Mum, was it just too much liquor?'
He added, 'I'm not here to bicker -
and although I don't care,
in the photos i'm there
at your wedding...in fact, I'm the vicar!'

Bourbon and Ice

by Wayne Wysocki

A fellow who fractured his hip
Learned a valuable tip
     If liquor you drink
     At the ice skating rink
You're probably going to slip.
