I dance to the beat of garbage bins
With an empty bottle of vodka and gin
I sing a song so melancholic
May be a reason, why I am alcoholic

My future is on a crossroad
My sad story left untold
Don't know whats right whats wrong
Because I am a drunken vagabond

I party at a lonely night
With cats,dogs,mice thats all right
People say "no pain no gain"
But I say "no gain no pain"

Thats the life of vagabond
A truant whose journey goes on and on
A penniless merchant travelling lands
With no loss,no gain,no money at hand

Woah this is one of my favorite poems now. Every line was very well-thought out, and I like that I have never read a poem like this before. Well done!

I like how it almost sounds, like a drunkard song. The way i's written is sort of off-beat and strange. You might expect to hear it sung in a tavern..... awesome
