Alcoholism

Life must be hell
sober.
It is.

Alcohol does not
produce
alcoholics,
nature does.
We fall in love.
We get hurt. And then
one day
you're tipping beer into
your mouth like water.

Hell, intelligence
and stupidity
-natural things in humanity-
both contribute
to alcoholism.

I might just live under a bridge.
I might just become a CEO.
I don't know what to do.
I'm losing my
mind,
but it's nice to have one to
lose, still.
