What do you call it?
Drink in hand,
can barely stand.
A stagger,
mistaken for swagger.
Fist slammed on table
in violent fervor.
Reckless thoughtless actions
By a shell of a man
that can’t even cast
a shadow,
let alone stand.
Barking like a rabid dog.
Those around him cower in fear
If he’s lucky.
If he’s not:
He’ll waste away.
A nobody
to nobody.
