Winged Victory?

He comes as a bird
To show His love
Think of Leda and the swan
Mary and the dove.
A rustle of wings
A coo or a honk
"Nice birdie" she says
And then they bonk...................Hoof Ardette, SJ

Sometimes I Always Drink Too Much

This morning's attempt at a country song:
Sometimes I Always Drink Too Much
I’m nervous and anxious and out of touch
I can’t find the time for the self-help books
I look everywhere and see dirty looks
So sometimes I always drink too much.
She says I’m no good and this and such
That I don’t pay attention to anything good
I’m too close or distant, don’t do what I should
So sometimes I always drink too much.
Drink too much, drink too much
I hide out at the bar and don’t make a fuss
The booze is my friend, confidant, and also my crutch
Sometimes I always drink too much
Sometimes I always drink too much
Then I’ll curse and I’ll fight and act like a putz
I’ll stagger and stumble and lose everyone’s trust
Sometimes I always drink too much.
