Sober Thoughts

It was an amusing bottle of wine that I finished off last evening,

while I was reading and thinking a bit.

Full of flavors and anticipation

before it even got to the lip.

A measure of boldness against the royal sweetness ofset

the oaken hint of vanilla.

The book was much better than I had expected

and my thinking very clear and precise

It is my writing this morning,

I fear,

Is not very clear or concise.

Author's Note

Don't drink and write.
