I fell off the staircase
A tree wrapping around its trunk
Birds gliding through the ocean
Teastall offering free of charge
North Korea and the USA
On a toast with Scotch whiskey
What's your name, someone says?
I was staring at the tree leaves
Then a gentle voice emerged
Under the sun, my supreme choice
I found the Jakaranda blue
As in a haze, I came to
Did you do it intentionally

True truth... I've never heard of any liver
that was a friend of drink... no matter how noble it may be...
Scotch whiskey, French champagne, dirty-stemmed cane,
cachaça that killed the guard, Hemingway's piña colada
Artisanal beer (factory or home-brewed beer)
it can handle more or less a cup of tea... of boldo...!
Finn barged on in,
As he ran to the bar
He laid down a fifty
Dropped a tip in the jar
He demanded scotch whiskey
And, ordered six doubles
The Bartender asked
"Finn what is the trouble"
After shooting the whiskey
He calm down to say
"I just learned, My friend
That my oldest Son's gay"
A week went by quickly
He barged in again
Ordered six doubles
Dropped cash in the tin
The barkeep waited
Till He finished, to say
"Now what is the trouble"
"My youngest Son's gay"
"Does any one like women,
Who live in your house"
"Ay, One besides me,
I tink it's me spouse"
I might not be beautiful,
But I could intoxicate you,
Melt through you like an aged Scotch Whiskey.
I could make you dizzy with how you make me feel.
That kind of happy can be tranferred from my eyes,
Straight to your heart.
I could disorient you with my kiss,
It would feel like flying!
The take off of lips first connecting,
Then deeper familiarity lifts us higher.
We would open our eyes and register surprise,
That our feet are still on the ground.
I don't need a perfect body to get you thirsty to drink me in,
You would savour my softness....my fullness,
I could make you drunk on me.
Just give me your lips.
