Alky Days Long Ago

Liquid nights ,
Soured my every dawn ,
Sent
Thoughts into reeling .

Sober- hunger,
It bitch-slapped with tiredness ,
Pain

Slugged , there's inner cussing .
Truthful voices squirmed
By early morning light

It's
Painful to my ears , I listened
And be damn if I didn't
Drink again .

Was it my heart in shallow grieving ?

This is the morning tale so long ago .
