sometimes the body needs to escape the mind
drinking worries away drowning problems
need to escape words thoughts pain
can be dangerously real
or drinking to refresh the spirit;
but remember when you come up for air
intelligence youth beauty cannot
always be exempt from pain
inner beauty inner courage
will always rise;
you have that in spades
take care there
I will have a drink here
to your health
to resurrection of indomitable spirits;
