Drunk

The filthy beast ! And is he here again,

With his foul slobbering mouth and shuffling feet,

To taint the atmosphere and shame the street,

And shock the pure and holy that abstain?

Disgusting brute! Disgraceful blot and stain

On social order,civilised and sweet!

Deal with him,constable as right and meet

When laws are flounted that we must maintain.

Put him in prison! Confiscate his bowl !

Away with him and the accursed drink

That wrecks his body and degrades his soul,

And makes him loathsome to clean men ! But

Think 

He had no choice.It was his only share

Of all its pleasures that the world could spare.
