No Next Drink

Ask me if I want

Another drink.

I'll nod my head and say

Yes.

I want it.

I need it.

I crave it.

I'm close to

Passing out.

So don't give me

That next drink.

This is my dad, to the tee. Thanks for sharing, its a harsh reality.

Ah the old addictions......our "evil friends"...that make life so interesting...and sometimes painful....
simple, effective write....I like this.

Um, I can't exactly say I enjoyed this poem. I mean, it's basic and it talks about passing out by drunkness.... so NO I didn't enjoy this poem. Try again.
