What is After "The Drinking Life"?*

(Unapologetically, I present a short & simple verse I wrote because when one has moved from a space of chaos to a place of tranquility, simplicity seems the order of the day.)

"The Drinking Life"

The Drinking Life
Evaporated me.
Each sip I took
Took some of me away.
Who could have guessed
One day I would be free?
I'm thankful for
This Sober Life today.
