The Alcoholic
Drunk on swollen pride,
ego sips lies, one by one
glass half-full of self.

Liquid, Soothing
Liquefy my mind
I got nothing else to give
Heathen of mischief

There might be something wrong with being able to vote? I'm not able to vote on a poem. Friends are also unable to vote.

Yeah, isn't it supposed to allow you to select whether to have people vote on the poem or not? I didn't get that option when I started this. I plan on allowing the people to vote, if at all possible.

A Beer or two
A beer or two, a simple pleasure,
To savor slowly, at our leisure.
The golden bubbles, dancing free,
A moment of pure joy for me.
The frothy head, a work of art,
Soothing to the weary heart.
A sip of bliss, a moment's peace,
A welcome respite, a sweet release.
In good company or all alone,
A beer or two, a comfort known.
A taste of hops, a touch of malt,
A humble brew, a simple fault.
So here's to beer, in all its glory,
A drink that tells a different story.
Of simple pleasures, shared with friends,
A moment's peace, that never ends.
