Bacchus Rose - Anacreontic Verse

Anacreontic verse Bacchus rose joy purging xeric throats choking upon libations conflicted aims dancing naked fearlessly awash escaping inhibition’s tyranny loosing anger’s soul through merriment releasing wingless spirits thoughtless thoughts unfettered voices mumbling wine soaked praise to numbing’s god. 10/26/2015 submitted to – Anacreontic Verse 1 – Poetry Contest sponsor – Edward Ebbs
