Blues, Bruises And Booze Poem by T Nkosi

Pour me another glass of sadness
Play me a good tune of the blues
Let the intoxication be my happiness
I need to numb these bruises
And drown these senses in the liquid of sadness

Pour me another glass of sadness
Play me a good tune of the blues
Let the intoxication be my happiness
I need to cure this mental madness
And drown the mayhem in the liquid of sadness

Pour me another glass of sadness
Play me a good tune of the blues
Let the intoxication be my happiness
No more I am sleepless
Drown these worries in the liquid of sadness

Liver don't fail me now
Ground don't kiss me now
One more round
And maybe I'll be home bound
