A grey drunk with a sporty smile
Tells you about things that could be done
Actions, vivid images, because there’s life
In you and around sharp colours
Forming an insult but you’re not a coward
A grey drunk buys you a drink
He insists, he’s buying the qualities
That can’t be unseen a drink
You can’t hide, you’re listening to a story
An entity brings comfort and old age
Smoke fulfils the room, it dims
The colours, the smiles, contrasts, surplus
Sprinkles ancient magic of one on all
You exit. Fog
Bliss on the path of a birthing sun
