Alcohol
fuel.
drives you into oblivion,
get even with a world
that gives doodle shit
about who you are.
alcohol.
there is a hole
where my heart is.
alcohol.
haul me over the coals.
one more shot
and i am done.
reality. don't mean nothing.
alcohol.
go whole hog.
pour it down your throat.
someone almost bought the farm.
no harm done.
one more.
one more.

GREAT poem about a powerful means of escape. I love how the first line seems to go in an un-anticipated direction. A very sad desperate tone in this poem.

Thanks Virginiapetal for your appreciation. True, the poem is about a means of escape but it is also an escape to nowhere and to a place of no return.i am glad you liked the poem

but you kicked that habit that was causing havoc out to space like you were in a race for time
living was on your mind

Honestly I never thought of it the way you are suggesting but it certainly makes a lot of sense and makes the poem much more positive. Thanks
