Dis

Dis

They say the drink
Disinhibits

And is therefore
Dishonest

Clouded thoughts
Unchallenged

As if that challenge
Is true
Is right
Is the real, genuine
Reality

We the poets
Artists
Musicians

We who escape
Our minds

For us, the drink,
Whatever it may be

Can be the key

The key that
Disengages

From an unaccepting reality

For us
The challenge is not truth
It is a challenge
And only a challenge

Challenges are cages
And cages are to be opened

Disengage the lock

And release

But don't let go

Please

Don't let go
