Why are happy times so often,
Complemented by excess,
Rich and tempting toxic poisons,
Sweetened spirits we ingest?
All our toasts of celebration,
All our whims of revelry,
Guilt and shame may soon replace them,
Drawn from wonton gluttony.
Written by: Larry Sansone. In order to hone my writing skills (and for my own silly amusement) I am launching the O.C.P. Project: one poem per day for one year. I started the project on Jan.1, 2011 and completed the last poem on Jan. 1, 2012. Poems will be posted daily, whenever possible.
