An Alcoholic's Dilemma Poem by John Thorkild Ellison

They said just relax and have a few drinks,
Who cares anyway what your doctor thinks!
And they carried on with their meaningless chatter
As if nothing on earth could possibly matter,
Who cares! What the hell! Just join in the laughter,
The worst you can do is have a hangover after!
You mustn't imagine we're being unkind
(Though we don't give a damn if you're losing your mind)
Don't be a wet blanket, just join in the fun,
Only suckers are sober when the party's begun! !
