Again, I've had too much wine. Mulled, cold this time, and my thoughts are so forbidden. I want to feel those characters, sink into my flesh, before I grow too old, one day too old, one idea could change everything. Ink on ink, ink on skin, skin on blood until ink, instead of blood but just as warm, will run. And I, will let those seeds you planted bloom, regardless. Like summer that burned down broken ashes of who I never was and brought me back to life. So are you willing…? Are you drinking…? From this goblet of life that sets us on fire. So please, put my flames out, with water not wine, before I'm nothing but ashes.
