Mister Spendthrifty the Unrepentant Alcoholic.

  Mister Spendthrifty the Unrepentant Alcoholic.
_____________________

  Mister Spendthrifty the
  Unrepentant Alcoholic,
  adopts a carefree attitude.
  (because he really cares so much.)
  He thinks it's likely the safest bet.
  (since people mostly suck.)

  The Street Bums, and Meth Hookers,
  and Runaway Gems (who see themselves
  as lumps of Coal) all flock to Him;...
  He is their prophet who preaches about
  A Life reflective of the Saddest Realism.
  He hates the attention that they secretly crave.
  (and so he pays it all to them.)

  It's ironic how some who are capable of
  doing nearly Anything, choose to have
  (and Be) Nothing. Existing as Phantoms
  of The World who cling patehtically to
  the antiquated fables of their upbringing;...
  Mister Spendthrifty the Unrepentant
  Alcoholic probably knows them all.
  (which is why you would never catch him
  weeping.)

  For a 6 dollar Bottle and a pack of Cheap
  Smokes,.. Mister Spendthrifty will work
  an 8 hour day, or write you some
  of the greatest poetry anyone has written.
  Some see Him as a Joke. Others see a Star Unrisen.
  He sees another Bottle, on Another
  Day....full of people he cares about So Much.
 
     (in a world that mostly Sucks.)
