i’m a terrible lush.

imbibing the worst of the worst,

day in, day down.

the moon, a simple lover,

in times when too much

is all i want;

and even then,

i search hard for her

glow betwixt the sticks,

the steels with their flagrant

copycat of her style.

love me for a little while

moon, but stay and watch

over me and my terrible

lust.
