Moral Nothingness : A Weekend Freew

...
And it starts to ooze
The beer look too cold to set loose
With a very good pepper soup
Drinking, wining and dinning ,
They made is drank to stupor
Till he can't want more.
...
...
To and fro, walking non-supportive
His age and experience betrayed him
Vowed all the beer he could drink
A crate was all it takes, already tipsy
Stubborn boy wouldn't dare stop it
Drank till he was nothing.
...
...
His sorrows were gone in his fantasy
A pregnant woman at home
Hungry children waiting for there daddy
A promise he will return with full load
Never knew he has wasted his salary
Nothing with to return home.
...
...
Dragged on the floor to his wife
The man who has forgotten his life
No food for his children, they thirst
There he was in the gutter, fantasy
They looked and pass, no comment
Tearful wife came, dragged her hubby out of the shame.
...
...
He shrugged off at the morning
Seeing a once happy family
Heads bowed in shame, frowning
Children will be stigmatized, not funny
All from a father who is morally nothing
Came shame to a family who knew nothing.
...
