Great name-Ziggy Feddermoshalot. He seems to be quite the mess and I think I see a twelve step program in his future! The rhyme scheme was well done. You don't see many poems about getting wasted and hurling, but you sir, have pulled it off!

Bill;
+ A most dramatically written piece of poetry that offers both humor and sadness and one complete concept. You have the humor of a man who is drawn in the sadness that he is not smart enough to do it the next day.
+ Interesting rhyming format for each rhyming word was contingent to the meaning and concept of each line therefore making the rhyming neither forced nor labored and helpful in the rhythmic flow of the poem.
+ Rhythmic meter both mixed and variable. However, the cadence, tempo, timing and movement which all were very helpful in making the reading clear, fluid and very easy.
+ Imagery was very sound and exquisitely expressive and vividly and demonstratively descriptive: "He began a journey home on which he tripped in every stone ripped his pants and broke a bone then belched in a gurgling spew".
+ I like everything about this phone as it was both lighthearted and poignant and food for thought.
+ Thank you for sharing and posting this and may the good Lord be with you always my friend.

Some people never learn when they drink and have difficulties with drinking. I was drunk 3 times before I was of a legal age to drink and had a problem each time. With the third time I said to myself, "Patricia, you don't need to drink alcohol to live , so stop. I did and I never drink alcohol now. Patricia

    Thank you, Patricia, for reviewing this. Yes, I was what is none as a problem drinker. Drinking causes problems for me. I got married in 1986 and have never had another drink. No problems.

This is an hilarious poem-story to read and enjoy. Sadly, that is the way for most alcoholics, they don't know when to stop until it is too late.

You did a great job with this poem. It was very funny and clever! Would actually make great lyrics to a song ... maybe sang at AA meetings! All the Best to You! Mickey

What a clever name! Where did you get it from? Did you make it up yourself? Or has it always been around and it's just my first time hearing it? lol

I really enjoyed reading your poem, but I always do.

It reminded me of my old boss ;) Nice job

Funny. You told a story in poem form in a small space. Good job on the rhyme.

The flow was natural. I see no changes. Good job and thanks for sharing.

Ha-ha! Yeah, what's a few broken bones when you're havin' fun, right? And Zingy did find his way home after all, and without hurting anyone else but himself in the process.

That's why they say live today like there will be no tomorrow. Zingy seems to have embraced that philosophy quite well.

Funny stuff, Bill..heh-heh.

And why not? No don't answer that one. We can do without the moralising on the demon drink. This guy enjoyed himself, he did no harm, apart from perhaps to his liver, so good luck to him I say.

A good, light-hearted piece that will shock the puritans to core, and that's no bad thing!

"Zingy" what a dingy! Alcohol will do that to you though. Well written. Action flows smoothly and story line easy to follow. Write on.
