. ‘Artist’s Word’ Though I write of many things, I try with each poem, To make it Ring, I try to be humble, And above all Honest, The poems I write, Are never Pompous, I write of God and belief of, I do this with respect, And I show him Love, I developed and grew, A website or two, Poetry's my Niche,
As I’m fulfilling my wish.
I write of Alcoholic drinking,
Bad in its day,
It’s effects were severe,
And had to go away. Speaking of such, Drinking seemed to became a must, I drank everyday, And even before lunch. It got the best of me, I humbly admit, The truth overcame me And I reluctantly quit. Never was it said, I'd responsibly ever drink, AA is for life, and makes you think. It speaks of new Life, And provokes new faith, It promises a change, That may seem strange. For I wasted many years, And faced insidious fears, The hangovers and DT's Made me become Aware,
And I learned it as a Disease. Maybe it's a Necessity, Needless to say Addiction, It got the best of me And I lost all recollection. It drove me to Panhandle, Asking for small change, It was too much to handle, And drove me insane.
There is no Assurance of Relief,
That has to be a Belief,
It’s double edged sword,
Only drives you to Grief.. It's not widely known, But drinking can drive you insane, Trying to remember, Your Real name.. If Persisted too long, It has long term effects, Your extremities can Suffer,
And your brain will become sick. With AA these days, Being all so prevalent And known, Please Remember, You can't do it Alone. The steps are written, As AA Fellowship is Ideal, But It costs Nothing, With Adequate Faith You Can Prevail.. All in All, Alcohol is Dangerous, So don't take the fall, And hide your breath.. Be honest with yourself, And repeat after me,
‘DAM I CANT TRUST THAT
LIQUOR SHELF’
‘And I wanna be Free’
Adventurous Extremes
