Intoxication

INTOXICATION
At times I love getting intoxicated,
Specially when I am irritated,
Sometimes I become so relaxed,
Or else I get doubly taxed.
Too much intoxication can drive you mad,
People will look and say so sad.
Foolish also you can behave,
When intoxicated I hate to shave.
I must have fallen in love twenty times that night,
Now I am sober it sure gives me a fright.
Then I don't care a damn.
My enemies can go hang themselves by the fan.
I was not born an alcoholic or such,
I just like that drink so much,
Beware a little to much can become a bane,
All your goodwill, good work can go down the drain.

So true. One needs to mature in drink and slowly savor its effect and not over indulge. Took me a few years to learn to drink like a man and not get too intoxicated to make a fool of myself. Two shots of Scotch or maybe 4 beers are enough for a day. Sometimes a glass of wine with dinner to smooth the tummy and innards is good too.
