words become a floodblanket
wrapped wet and heavy, solving the mouth
in a mess and tangle of sounds

this is torture, if ever I have known it
living in the wake of moments viewed through an aperture
ripped open in time, sadness pouring over edges
and filling cup and glass half empty

so I drown in one hundred
ten proof vodka and sink like a stone;

remember what it's like to disappear without moving,
how to live inside the bedrock
broken.

I've never cared much for wine, but I keep meaning to try some decent ones as I suspect I've only ever tried pretty bad wines. I cook with it, but I don't really enjoy drinking it from what I've tried.

As for whiskey vs vodka, in this case I mostly chose vodka because of the euphonics w/ "proof"

The only proof I seek is the truth I find at the bottom of the bottle.


When it comes to whiskey, or wine for that matter, cheap is fine for me.

I splurge every now and then, but in the end no matter the price, I still
get to where I want to be.
