Hostages by © Richard J. Budig 1999 Drunks. Get rid of ‘em They say Then everything’s fine But we Their hostages Know it ain’t so They live on In their handiwork Broken furniture Broken Dreams Bashed doors Bashed hopes Split lips Split emotions |

Well said, Broker. Hostage to a bottle, the drunks we'd like to throttle ! Living hell the drunkard rends ... there's more than furniture here to mend. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh, my friend ... haven't we all. Whether it lives in your house or the house of a friend ... the ravages of addiction to the bottle touch us all. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
