Drink And Down


My father used to drink and down

Beer very quickly.

I never liked the taste of it.

It made me sick and tired.


Alcohol is like a drug.

Once you start drinking

You can't stop.

It compromises your health

And well being.


AAA can be a life savior.

It's helped millions of people.

War id aide

And it helped my dad

Who was sober at thirty-eight-years-old




Drink and/or Down


When you are down

There's no clowning around.

It's like a sound

That abounds.

Without a grown.


To down is to

Abound it 

Until it sticks

Like glue

In the hue.


For when you

Are blue

It's like stew

In the blue

Of a midnight sky.      


We ask why

Yet have no answers.

At best

We must pass the test,

And go on with our quest.
