The genie in the bottle.

a fictional write based on the stimulus of alcohol.

Within the bottle
the sum of us

the genie lurks,
the joker,
the writer,
the intellect,
Mr Confidence,
the drunk

the sum of me.

Hey bud that's my bottle so get your antipodean paws off it!
This poem lets us see right through you fella. Creative I'd say!

[andrew mitchell]

hahaha Thanks John, I only drink on weekends and one day at that, but sometimes watching my footy team play on TV I occasionally over do it! Creative indeed!

These are the good things in the bottle...I have so many more terrible things in mine. A confession of sorts :) Nice one Andrew.

[andrew mitchell]

Only occasionally DIVYA watching aussie rules footy.However I don't drink on weekdays. Thanks for reading.

and they do say that we are most truthful when drunk...is that true?
maybe...

[andrew mitchell]

In moderation I think we are more relaxed hence more comfortable to be truthful and possibly more artistic in the stimulus. Depends on the state of drunkenness. Thanks for your words J.
