Writing When Your Breath Stinks

No perfect verse can be written before sleep; it's better to procrastinate than to write when your breath stinks! No, I am not referring to unbrushed teeth and unrinsed mouth, but lots of gulping drinks! Even your pen swerves as a wheel of a car; doesn't influence effects your ability to put thoughts together! Food for thought is not wine, beer or champagne; they will not stimulate your intellect when you are unable to think! Rather they will decrease brain performance, blocking your thinking process... like an invalid password not giving you access! Ever sent one to an editor... and it was rejected for grammar, wrong form and misspelling? He must have smelled alcohol from far! There was a poet writing lengthy verses lacking imagination, they couldn't hold the reader's attention: when they could have been brief and to the point without sacrificing artistry! He always had a bottle of rum or vodka next to him to keep him company! Wouldn't you say that... he was as drunk as his pen? Writing when your breath stinks, slows you down and makes you unresponsive to your surroundings... failing to notice important things! There are lots of foolish mouths spitting out words with the allude they will be performed on stage! Wouldn't the audience be upset, or show intense rage?
