On the need of moderation
No room for Sprit
I got drunk again last night.
I came home to drink of you.
when I took you in my mouth
I promised
• As my gums stung
• And the back of my head remembered
I’d tasted before.
When I fondled ideas of temperance-
I gave up tasting you
to bite my lip.

ummm...I left an i out of Spirit. I think that is okay though as the poem is about a hangover.

It's what Covenant does to you... four years and we just get so excited about every opertunity to do what we were not allowed to do... or at least this seems to be a theme. Always love to read your stuff.
