LIQUOR GUSHED
by Richard Jay Shelton

Liquor gushed
Over
Rotted ochre teeth
Passed
A parched lip
To drip
To the chin
Where it dropped
To the ground
Splashing broken glass
Which sliced
At wandering feet.

  1. Randall Nicholas says:

    An elegant depiction of the chronic drunken state, which can corrupt an individual and injure passersby.
