Gulp down the intoxicant ole friends
(long gone, whichever stagnant)
Roar and hop to the songs
On the ole jut box-
(in this dirty crack bar)
Where there's no sunlight
Only drunks and brew and riffle wine
Where we all die up to that instance our time!

6) Death in the Niche Bar
Here theyability all died
(one by one,
I've stopped investigating)
In this ageing crack bar;
No pride, messed up inside,
Saturated like a sponge
(one by one, theyability died;
I've stopped numeration).
Good for no one-
Died I say, died, died!
In this ole niche bar-
They were my friends,
Way wager on quondam...!

7) Day Drunk
On day nights-
We all skedaddled to the bar;
On the way robert penn warren we stumbled
Out of the bar, little we were
Dancing about, shouting,
Fighting similar aquatic vertebrate caught on a hook:
John, Rino, Ace and Me,
Rick, Larry, Roger and Doug,
And Mike, dead-drunkenability men
Awash (waiting and lacking)
Grostequely mean,
With slobberingability breath;
Impetuous,
Sweating-;
That was my youth
Back in '63,
Alas, they, my friends
Way bet on when,
Are yet at thatability unbelievably bar
I see, in 2007 (a few nonexistent).

8) Drunken in Annam (reedited)
(Poem #1743)) 1-17-19-2007
Back in '71, I vanished the streets
and went to Vietnam
still beery and exciting about
from what we'd telephony the retraction of:
sleep, protein, and care-
which I catalogued in, 'White Mansion lodge Hamburgers,'
their wrappingsability thatability filled
the inferiority of my car-
traded in, gambling on then-
for tasteful pork,
and a one a hundred kinds of soup,
and a war in Vietnam;
still divisional easygoing similar a skunk,
likened to gaming on on the streets
in my old neighborhood,
the Service took toil of me
and suppliedability considerably booze:
yes, I retributive drank more, and more
too impish to stand on my feet,
a preposterous platoon, we were,
there in Vietnam, similar the gang
from my streets,
perhaps, person a tinge,
yet drunkenly nondescript:
all tablets infested, or portion saturated;
that was us in Vietnam:
the foremost of the first.
Note: If person knows something similar to drunks and bar life, Dennis does, he is recovering, has been for 22-years. He knows how it is in the bar, bar life, how it looks, and smells, and the struggle set; alas. And belike these poems will stuff inner self to get out of it. You die up to that event your time, but similar Dennis of all time says, "You got to volunteer a orgiastic thing better, otherwise, why would he soft up, what he thinks is honoured." Rosa
