An Old Drunk
by Eric Knoblauch

Look at that man with the smile from ear to ear.
His head held up high and his eyes see no fear.
Notice as he walks his path is always clear.
Thats because nobody likes the smell
of old wine n cheap beer.
But the man doesn't seem to mind
as he staggers and sways.
Yelling out to the people about
his old childhood day's.
And of course about how
his battleship almost sunk.
I wonder what life would be like,
without an old Drunk.
