Sober

they call it "Sober".
well, it is quite sobering.

90 days without a drink.
it does give ya' time ta' think
clearly.
and you pay dearly
for that chip.
kinda' like a dip
in the pool in December.
let's ya' remember
why you drank,
why ya' sank
in the first place.
all those things
ya' didn't wanta' face.
