Wine swirls under thoughts that twirl Trying to hide behind the cigarette smoke curls I see you there Silently strangling the glassware Lost in an unimagined nightmare I see you there Shoulders shaking in despair As laughter rises from somewhere I see you there Hiding amongst the fanfare Wanting to be elsewhere in prayer I see you there Sitting so cautiously in that chair Wanting so desperately to find repair I see you there Lost in that forbear stare Ensnared in an unfair lair I see you there And before you prepare to choose somewhere Know that He does still care

It's depressing to think that so many are sitting in that chair strangling a glass of forgetfulness that never seems to allow them to forget.

Brilliant insight into alcoholism.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
