Oblivious
The drunkard grins
from ear to ear
Oblivious to the pain
he inflicts on those
who love him
Numb to the pain
buried six feet under
his cold cold heart
Bartender, bring me a double
That and a grin will
drown all his troubles

An incisive portrait.
So sad when there are only bottled grins… and all the damage caused…
That is a sad way to drown away the troubles ~ Good one Linda ~
There is deep sadness here. Well done, Linda.
