Close One

by A.N.M. - Pisces

Almost died
The other day...
And in a most heinous
And stupid of ways.

Not that there's ANY
Real "great" way to do it...
I wasn't even trying...
I really, "just blew it!"

Out of my "numbers"
And feeling quite ill--
Decided to "drink"
Had more than my fill!

The "toxin" raged sorely
Through out my poor veins
And slowly I traveled 
Towards death, so invane!

So any one reading
Please know that it's REAL!
Alcohol's fun but can
And WILL kill!

Please "watch" yourselves!
Have more RESPECT for your temple!
DON'T DRINK TOO MUCH!!!
It's that plain and simple.




Reason for writing:

    This happened.  Be careful!
