Once,
Long ago
I heard that
The sky strikes scribbled tomes
For a bit of dancing
And wine after nightfall

Shatter
Jolt
Plunk
And
Crumble.

I wonder if this is the way
That the heavens intended
Rotting therapeutic confection
and fizz.

My face, distorted
Reflected in carbonate
Pour me another

Come on, bartender
Nourish our souls
‘til we fumble
And
Fall.
