The only
|
|
Drink that quenches
|
|
Dulls the senses
|
|
Until
|
|
All discretion
|
|
Is lost.
|
|
|
|
What
|
|
Enabled this dependence?
|
|
My college attendance?
|
|
Is that their
|
|
Accreditation's cost?
|
|
|
|
Is it
|
|
The fault of my genes?
|
|
A man who
|
|
Couldn't stay clean
|
|
Then passed down
|
|
The ~~bottles~~ battles he lost?
|
|
|
|
Or was it
|
|
My lack of socializing
|
|
That kept me subsidizing
|
|
Charisma
|
|
With each drink
|
|
I came across?
