Poetic Drinking

Contributed by Adreana on Wednesday, 17th July 2002 @ 06:53:00 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems





My face is plastered to the bar
I haven't begun to drink yet
This place just seemed a good place to think
Soon I'll drink my blues away
Just for the evening, that is
Until I wake with a headache
And a new understanding of gravity

I am a poet with nothing left to write
With no words left to explain myself
With the exception of these words
I have wasted away to speechless
Like a broken record I repeat myself
Like a broken record I repeat myself
Too often I repeat myself

Pour me a shot of your strongest
Light me another cigarette
Don't worry if I begin to babble
It's a normal thing with me
Sober or smashed I tend to ramble on
About things that really don't matter
About things that really don't matter

Tonight I wish to drink myself stupid
Though it may seem irresponsible of me
However, I deserve it, I deserve it
I deserve a break from reality
A few hours of false happiness
Let me laugh till I drop to the floor
Let me laugh till I drop to the floor

Good poem. I don't think you've lost your poetic touch yet. Sometimes it takes a little encouragement to get your self confidence up again. What ever you do don't drink your talent away, you'll regret it.
