***%) After beaten down black-and-blue escape got overdue

February 13th, 2023 | Categories: cultural, ephemeral & beyond, escape, memoirs, top ranked

Careless years blown dissipated
lived ignorant of too much
Dull days closed down desolated
leaned too hard on booze’s crutch

I kept on churning on shallow laps
around & around & again
’til sounded inexorably taps:
Plainly mundane, nothing arcane!

Of true happiness I’d sung in vain
ignorant of another refrain
