Would moderate drinking
affect my thinking? 
Affect my life
in a way that’s adverse?

But wouldn’t it be better
not worse 
than regularly binge drinking?

I know what you’re thinking 
And I reckon you’re right 
That even a little,
that even a slight 
Bit of alcohol 
Isn’t really alright
 
It’s a drug after all 
It could eventually
cause me to fall 

It could open the door 
For the Wine Witch
to eagerly
welcome me back
With her sneaky
new plan of attack

To flatter me
then silence my dreams
and muffle my screams 
my gasps to reach
the surface for air
 
She wouldn’t care

I don’t think moderation is for me
I don’t want a drug 
That’s a vicious thug
And a bully
Instead
I want to live my life
Freely and fully ❤
