Whiskey hurts but see, it's all I have on a Sunday morning besides all it takes is a little less than wine or beer makes my face shrivel up and mouth cringe but what else do I have on a Sunday morning after 2am and the rules (law) say I can't buy beer till 1pm? Well after church lets out... I think I'll go mop the floor. I'm still awake now. And God isn't here on a Sunday of all days of my life when I need him. Isn't that ironic? |

Dixie, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ God isn't here on a Sunday of all days of my life when I need him. Isn't that ironic? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am probably going to get hung, drawn and quartered (even by my close friends) for saying this but... God never seems to be there when you need him most! Over the years I have learned to rely on the living and myself (you may find this surprising as you get to know my 'religious' persuasions) Friends, family, strangers have given me more support over the years than any God I have encountered....

Ivor, Isn't it wonderful God did give you the support of your friends and family. Look harder....God is there, you just don't see Him. |

He has a sense of humor, oh most definitely that....unfortunately it tends to be rather primitive, and one way or another, we're always the punch line.....being absent at that moment fits right into the pattern. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Honestly, Dixie, I don't know if God was there or not. But, I do know that you write one helluva poem! Alison |

Dixie..God can only help. He can't take the bottle or can out of your hand, only you can do that. I am always here for you. God can help you find strength needed to beat this if you really want to beat it...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

I think I'll go mop the floor. I'm still awake now. And ~*~ The slipslide of the mopping is the chance and decision one makes to have a choice in how things will look, and how things will be. And you, my dear friend, know from whereof I speak. Write on. Write strong. |

interesting poem maybe more ironic than you intended god isn't available, and during the hours of church services the beer isn't available either maybe neither of them is what is needed thanks for sharing MORE POEMS, PHOTOPOEMS, AND AUDIO VERSIONS AT http://anthonyarmstrong.multiply.com |

Dixie - I had to smile at the comment by Shirtless because I have a feeling that he's right. The God part is within so all you need is yourself. Touching write nonetheless. |
