liquid volume

..

turn it up, twister
sister: they say absinthe
maketh the heart grow
fonder. brandy? dandy.

whose cider
you on?
gin.
rum.
me?

our best kept
rush-and
-secret: vodka.
with a simple
mix
her,
elixir.

vapor. rise.
the sun’ll come
out tomorrow,
sorrow-swallowed
stupor and
all.

a small first
thought on the
rocks
purifies the fall.

please,
(shaken, un
-stirred):

keep it
neat.

    THIS IS SO KILLER!!! I flipping adore you. 🙂 And your side, first and foremost ~ (in) al(l)-ways.

    “liquid volume” … I LOVE that! I feel like you really get me. 🙂 Plus, in all my life, I’ve heard the equivalent of “turn it DOWN” way too many times. But anyone who tells me to turn it UP definitely has my heart. … Marry me? 😉

    “whose cider
    you on?” … That is PRICELESS! Same for “gin. rum. me.” (No question mark needed.)

    I also love “vapor. rise” and “rush-and.” It’s almost “Russian.” It’s almost “rush/rust-hand.” So many goodies in there. 🙂

  2. Just sort of feeling “Steely Dan” in this one!

  3. This was a fun read. 🙂
