Whiskey Glasses and Bathroom Mirrors
Two o'clock she hits me hard
I salute to another captain
look around and swallow hard
Not as hard as you leaving
hitting me straight between the eyes
stars spinning right after midnight
can't remember exactly why
Whispers filled the empty cauldron
along with a pint of homemade wine
life already was a struggle living
now what am I going to do with all this time
Whiskey glasses and bathroom mirrors
keep on holding back the cries
another pent up night in Georgia
running scared and telling lies
Come on back before the summer
when my troubles will be unclothed
sprinkle love upon these shoulders
before this man has decomposed
I salute to another captain

now what am I going to do with all this time

another pent up night in Georgia

A different approach than Your usual Tim-Refreshing when we break from Our norm isn't it?
I get locked in to "Nature" and "Love" Writes ...constantly...flowery poems, but adding the spontaneous thought or different teeth add a nice bit of pepper to a tale.--This was an Excellent Write Good Sir!!!

I echo those above me...the tone felt deep under the flesh and as far as the read itself...your "melody" was prefect...one could touch this...
