A vision of a poet, a journey through abstract imagery.
…and the glass in half
My sipping the straw
in a table opposite you
and the glass in half.
The descended level
at the first halt
makes you a portrait
of remembrance.
I keep imbibing my way
and gradually,
clarity sees you
as a whole —
in vertigos, pukes
and hangovers.
