inTOXICation

 There exist no poison more indignant

Whilst depriving the mind by drunken allure

Of sudden release and potent joy indecent;

Only so much liver and mind can endure.

Truly, I understand, but I mustn't deny

That my disapprove is hypocritical,

As voracious ale drinker makes lie

For even I fall tempt for alcohol.

To drown despair in intoxication,

Keep in mind the remark having toxic,

To truly exemplify the desperation 

Shrouded by an addicting  gimmick 

Ailed by liquors, typically the ale,

That pollutants through my veins slowly trail

ailed by ale....gotta hand it to you, this is brilliant! yeh, i'm a beer drinker and used to be a hell raiser....more mellow these days..but you have poured the draught of pensive recalcitrance herein...well penned.

I am glad you found it brilliant. I sort of snubbed it myself. I been writing poems on the side and not really investing myself into them.
