The pink elephant that
hides
beneath
the bottle
of Wild Turkey
has become
a friend
of mine
and
no longer do I fear
the nodding headaches;
the tired eyes;
the hangovers
or blurred visons
pass out
though I may
I have learned
that it isn’t
anything
that I need
to fear
I just need a happy medium
to balance
the equal
but very different
insanities
