the world looks like
god
someday
i know i’ll probably quit drinking
but for now
i’m pretty fine with it
for there is no other elixir
for dealing with mankind that i’ve found
that works as effectively as drink
and regardless
of the buckets of poison
that i pour into my gut
i’d take the ritually soused me of now
over the wide-eyed twenty year-old one
on any given day
but i still know
that one day these shenanigans will have to stop
the blurry bliss
leading toward torrential hangovers
the grand drunken party that i throw for myself
on a nightly basis
will have to cease
by choice
by doctor
by death
or when the world finally opens up its arms
to me
and looks like god
