Sam Adams Living in a Different Place

Sam Adams
Was a mad dreamer
A demented poet,
A drinker, drug abuser
Wild libertine pleasure seeker
and a struggling writer.

He spent his languid days
Lost in thought
drinking up a storm
at the Cosmos Club
In fabled Bangkok.

Surrounded by dubious people
doing dubious things
In a haze of alcohol and drugs,
Flying deep into inner space,
In a different place.

Than the world around him
Preferring to live
In his madness, inspired dreams..

Than face the dreadful reality
The reality of his boring
Humdrum disappointing
depraved lost life..
