Nothing worse than a drunken poet.
  Scratching **** on a pad of paper
  hoping some alchemy will create
  Poems to be worthy of the greats.
  Mind numbly grabbing for every word;
  brilliant lines drowning in beer spills.
  Poetry spilling on the tiles as sacrilege.
  A nightcap will put this futility to bed.
