    Another Drunkard's Attempt At Thinking
    I sit alone and have a drink
    And through the fog I attempt to think
    About tragedy, pain and dispair
    So I thrust my fist into the air
    Curse the gods that brought me there
    In my stoic stanse and empty stare
    I through my fog I attempt to think.
    "I think I will have another drink".

    END

    Very well said, and I've been there, my brother! They call it 'firewater' for a reason.

    Wonderfu, wonderful, wonderful. To the point, sad and relevant. I was hit in the face before I could duck and cover.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
