How Much Can My Liver Take (Bussokusekika)

Edwin Tanguma 1966 (CA)



How Much Can My Liver Take   (Bussokusekika)

It’s Been many years
Since I’ve drank Jim Beam and coke
Damn this shit is good
What about coke and JD
I’ll drink me that tomorrow
How much can my liver take

About this poem

I am taking a trip down memory lane tonight…Oh well…One day I will get over this Complex PTSD…But until I breath my last I will continue to cope…The only way I know how…

    I believe Noah was the first alcoholic of the Bible and I believe I read he actually created wine…I find it rather ironic…Noah be the first alcoholic and me being the last…lol
