Poet-holic

by The Po whet   May 10, 2012


They claim their wine matures with age,
but my poetry sweetens word by word.
they drown themselves in their bottles,
while I sit buoyed in poetry anaesthesia.

they stagger home mumbling their mumbo-jumbo's,
as I stride home whistling poetic hymns.

they shout to the barman
"Another round "
while I search my "brain -bar" for
"another word".

I give in
"barman what took you so long?
my poetry just lost it's flow".

    Oh fun is this unique poem!! I read this three times and just was blown away by the creative touch and forms of expression...
    I too am a poetic holic--- The way the author describes the details in the pub mixing intoxication with poetry was absolutely mind blowing creative...
    and then to end it at the end with such a fun and humoristic way is just awesome!!! The ending was explosive and cute along with funny- "My poetry just lost it's flow"... Really a wonderful poem and I enjoyed this piece! Well done Sesom Obmesa
