An Alcoholic Marries
Johnny Millican 1953 (Texas)
About this poem
There are too many remembrances of marriage s over the years I have seen that the husband or wife expects to be happy and one of the couples abandon their family through addiction. This poem is from the view point of the addict after he or she realizes what they had.
