I wish I could say
The only vestiges
Of my alcoholic ways
Were the adipose cells
In my belly
But blotched
Suicide scars
On my arms
Reside
The beauty of my face
Marked by concrete
And metal
Some of the feeling
In my toes has been lost
My continence grows
With every morrow
But I’ll take it all
And more
Now that booze
No longer runs
A permanent river
Through my veins
Commenti
