down your drink in one
make the darkness disappear
at least for a while

light gives way to dark
in a AA meeting
i forgot where I parked
We’ve all come to
This moment
To find out
Who we are.
Painted colors
Scribed words
Sweetly found.

Hi gullivor.... I sincerely hope you don't think I am being mean by saying this but the form of a Haiku ... is 5-7-5
The 3 lines must contain syllables in that order.

Just letting you know in case you did not know that. :D
Have a good evening
