First Drink
Many of us, when we first began to drink,
never wanted or took more than one or two drinks.
But as time went on, we increased the number.
Then, in later years, we found ourselves
drinking more and more,
some of us getting and staying very drunk.
Maybe our condition didn't always show
in our speech or our gait,
but by this time we were never actually sober.
