The Drunk

I lean on the edge of here and there
A poet blessed with a cloud of despair
I am inspired
Can I build a house?
Will it be?
Do I require 70%
Enough, I despise myself
My greedy hands

Review Request (Direction): 
Is the internal logic consistent?

Comments

Is the number 70% of particular significance?
Generally it is a good idea to write numbers 'seventy per cent' unless there is a specific reason for doing so.

Welcome to Neopoet, I look forward to more, and of course your responses to other's works.

cheers,
Jess
