Alcohol can be a bad habit.

Rub a dub dub,
stay out of the pub,
don't get all drunk,
hit the ground plunk!
Trip over own feet,
end up lying on the street.
Dog lick your face,
a drunken disgrace.


Stagger home,
puke in your room,
sleep in the bath tub,
rub a dub dub.
Wake up with a hangover,
fall back in the cover.
Lay off the job,
go back,
curse boss Bob.
Get fired,
then beg to be
re-hired.


Now you're unemployed,
your life destroyed.
You sat in pity,
lost in the city.
You try to pick up,
but your brain is corrupt.
Your mind is gone,
alcohol prone.

Thank God my kind friend, I have never cared for alcohol. My brother is an alcoholic and my dad was before he died. I've seen the damage it can do to peoples lives...not just the one drinking but the whole family. Good write as always:)

Hi Grady,
Nothing positive comes
out of alcohol...
It causes a negative reaction...

Happy to say that I gave it up years ago...

Great write...

Sad write, even though it seems to create a fun read. Alcoholism is a disease, not an addiction. Good write Grady!
