Song lyrics about triumph over addiction.......


Poem Artwork

UNDERTOW


 


 


Hotel rooms


Seedy bars


Outside


Looking in


Teal lagoons


Shiny cars


Velocipede of sin


 


Gelatinous infection


Incandescent scourge


Modicum enticement


Bulwark cliffs emerge


 


Road warrior enchantress


Provocative excess


Hawkish illustration


Stunning scarlet dress


 


Intoxication nation


The dead


Lift up their glass


Gross infatuation


Tempered rude harass


 


Cherry nosed drunkard


Staggering alee


Stout mind blowing hooch


Prowling patiently


 


Fighting blindly


Tooth and nail


Whiskey fed my rant


A sot was I


Quite cowardly


Braggadocio veil


 


Tis He who fished my flailing arse


From drowning in the gale


Gift of life supposing


Alive to share my tale


 


Fading myths


Monoliths


Confession lingers on


Extraordinary


Consequence foregone


 


Culture ripples


Undertow


Magnetism


Softened blow


 


Inestimable love


Benevolence we crave


In direct proportion


Pash sadly depraved
