Premium Member Socially Distanced Cocktails
The night is warm and her flowers in bloom A chance to dispatch our covid’d gloom; Old friends together, our drinks too well known A chance to catch up instead of alone. Each chair is placed at the distance proscribed And each wears a mask as our hostess advised, Surely, covid here has no chance to spread, Though no one can...

Fro With the Negroni
Smelled of orange, dense wet woods and musk. Piercing bright blue steady eyes Looked up theirs Constrainted gaze upon his joyful face So pleasant and entertaining The Fro with the Negroni His golden poodle alfro welcoming the bright sun Stylish shoes, suits; a well groomed homosapian. He took to the heat by going to the sea And slept in the sand. He's...

Coalition Cocktails
Dearest friend did I mention,  that I am not yet convinced about these coalition cocktails.  These cocktails of compromise can quickly cause confusion. Traditional reliables, mixed with fresh and new infusions. Watered down potency, muster these illusions Of neutrality, accessibility, of binding, and of fusion.  Contrasting composites of strong and fruity mixtures;  Colliding compounds of strange, exotic elixir.  Confounding ancient wisdom, and conventional...

Premium Member Cocktails At Seven
Cocktails at Seven Stand I grinning like a second-rate comedian, conversation wafting over and about my see-through discomfort.
