Wine And Courage
written several days ago...typing to get my mind off things...
Wine And Courage
The draped table normally ordinary
serves
wine, dry and red
which I wouldn't normally
partake
But with cheese and crackers
devoutly spread
serves a poet
whose spirits need libation
get through
the night I dread, spin my yarn
But not with rhyme because
that wouldn't
be sublime to one bittersweet
It's a slow burn
when I see you turn
your head, look at me
with new eyes
and I think
I struck a nerve
But is it good or maybe bad?
or should I turn,
run from this?
drink my wine, wait for you
because you're next?
And then you look to me
and read your words
before I melt and think that I
have found someone
who gets me
It's ecstasy
It's a
slow burn
