The wino said it was a crying shame
the liquor store went up in flames today
before he'd had a drink of same old same
old fortified red vino. Beaujolais
is stupefying, come back baby gin
and tonic satisfying, more than twice
the kick ambrosia brings with it. His sin
was budgeting champagne with vice, a price
he gladly sadly paid; the rum and Coke
which he preferred so leisurely went first
and as he staggered over, one blitzed bloke
cross town; he swam the depths of ocean's thirst,
panhandled for more coins to spend, sincere
enough until he drowned for lack of beer.
