Give Me Bottled Love,100% Proof Poem by Mark Heathcote

Give Me Bottled Love,100% Proof

Give me bottled love,100% proof.
I need to drink green Absinthe.
Till this love can kill and draw blood
Give me bottled love,100% proof.

Smooth as a blanket of warmth
Deep in the woods beneath a sickle moon
Here with wine goblets, drink my blood.
Here with a wine goblet, drink my blood.
I give you my love.

Give me bottled love,100% proof.
Abstinence won't save us.
Give me bottled love,100% proof.
Abstinence won't save us now.

Heady as mead, come and dance with me.
Be my beacon raft on the foams of the sea.
Be my beacon raft on the foams of the sea.
With a 100% proof well-oiled tear
Tell me you love me too dear.

Give me bottled love,100% proof.
Transport me somewhere higher.
There is a love that frightens even me
That has no distilled sunshine, my love.

Love wears your silver bangle bracelets.
And dance with me; let's warm ourselves by the fire.
Love I need to drink the green Absinthe of your eyes.
And fall in love in the deep, deep woods.
With a 100% proof well-oiled tear
Tell me you love me too, my dear.
And give me your love; I want to find it 100% proof.
