Sacrifice by Daniel S. Irwin

The doc told him
That he needed to
Give up his nightly
Whiskey and soda
Or he was certainly
Going to die.
His poor kidneys had
Become like sponges.
Reluctantly, sadly,
He agreed and
Cut out the soda.




Daniel S. Irwin, native of Southern Illinois (such as it is).  Artist, writer, actor, soldier, scholar, priest among other things.

Work published in over one hundred magazines and journals worldwide.  Has appeared in over one hundred films. 

Speaks fluent gibberish when loaded.  Not much into blowing his own horn as you are only as good as your latest endeavor.

Once turned to religion but Jesus just walked away.
