your
window
of
opportunity
appears
to have closed
while
your were sitting
in your favorite tavern
caressing
your beer
and
peanuts
but
don’t fret
if you’re
not reincarnated
as a bar stool
you may
get
a second
chance

Poetry has the power to make us aware of what is hidden in the shadows...those places that we seldom see or want to see...the poet's voice scrapes away the facade of an issue and lays bare for all to see what has been denied. By providing a voice to these mute realities, poets have throughout history altered the course of events by enlightening readers and encouraging them to take action to stop wars, halt injustice, and to reach out to their fellow man. Like those poets who have proceeded me, I am motivated by the same desire to bring about the social changes necessary to enhance the quality of life for those around me and around the world and to give voice to those who cannot speak for themselves.!

Should the makers of barstools feel just as guilty as the makers of the spirits that draw them to that stool? I wonder if those who grow peanuts should suffer the same conflict in thought?
You have given this twisted mind much to think about.
I thank you from the bottom of my creative heart.

It’s not just beer drinkers who miss opportunities…bloggers who can’t tear themselves away from the computer do, too :)

This one brought a laugh this morning, Love Gabrielle’s comment.
Alcohol, a vacation of the mind or an alternate reality?
LoL :D My uncle should read this ;-) Now this is funny :D
You voice my concerns so well sometimes. I got a good laugh out of the last couple lines. Makes you wonder who you are sitting on when you are at the bar.
The best title for a poem!
