Shake And Drink Slowly

Little moments of courage

Sad eyes

To die

To live

Sex

The fight

The maze

Our great escape

Meaning

Love

Consciousness

What it means to be human

Good and Evil

Suffering

Alcohol

Broken dreams

Broken bones

Weed

and

Mushrooms


Mix it all together

Brew it in a large cauldron

Then transfer into a medium beaker

Heat over open flame for 5-10 minutes

Add a splash of whiskey and self doubt

Then move to microwavable safe bowl

Heat on high for 2 minutes

Stir

Let it cool

Insert all the variables that make me me

(Good luck with that one)

Shake and

drink slowly


Then sit in front of a dying laptop

and start typing.

Perfect it for 10 years,

and come back to me.


It’ll be interesting for me to see what I could be if you were me.
