Sorrows, drowned

Too often I approach
and try to correct
today's problems
.
Depending on a bottle
of any proof or sort
who gives a damn
.
As long as it will smooth
the tiresome days wrinkles
I want to forget

  8. "some drink to remember/some drink to forget"

    interesting poem that speaks of a sort of defeatist emotion.

  9. This really touched me because of my father's alcoholism.
    Intense use of the words this week.
