The red glass of wine a cool thief of my time and my will.
I ferment with these grapes for as long as it takes, each one is a brother to me.
Every bouquet has a balance they say, but I can't balance when I've quaffed a few and I do overbalance on balance I do.
See how it goes around the houses to get to the gist it's obvious this poetry's as ****** as a newt.
Absolution's in the wink and the pen and the ink's incidental, the poetry comes anyways.
I speak out to seek out the wisdom in words whether written or not, time on my mind and my hands are not idle, but idle I do, on balance I'm as balanced as you.
And to spot a mistake in any moment I break is to open a new can of germs, I am fallible, liable to overload and more liable as my circuits corrode and the road that I tred is the road where the dead make another break.
I take comfort in the red wine when the fine lines of time converge and merge into the scenery, as comfortable as I can be on balance.
