find in my mind, a place to sip my drink, don't even think, let my anxiety sink, and like ink, let the red trickle down my throat like Stevenson wrote, " wine is bottled poetry ", so I read the letters filling up my need my eyes are closed, I feel such greed, proceed ... a Parliament is between my fingers my desire lingers, the glow lights my coffin nail, I inhale, and it fills my body like a plug akin to my favourite drug, I forget, what it's like to sweat, over the little things I've grown these wings, I'm bursting of power and drive, this taste and this pull, have given something fresh to life some say death is near, but it's already here, I've witnessed my own crash one hand I carry my blood and in the other, my ash

My Drink and My Cigarette
