Liquid is a Solid
Drunkenness is the real me,
sobriety is besotted with distractions, hangxiety with crapulous intoxication.
As a bird has no lips the better his song
and a dodo in a poem about extinction
is more extant when gone,
so the only true I, like egg with sperm,
is booze with brain, gives birth
through heart and loins
to that odor that is my soul.
