Notes About The Poem

Muse and Booze

I just stood bewildered, staring Specks of the sky slowly pass through the glass Adding a frosty sheen to the scene A soft, creamy dew passes through. A boy standing by a mothball light The dark entrance of nature exposed The darkly hidden entrance of the mind You may be in a slump, so Don't muse about relying on this. How the spindle works It's different now, and it's pell-mell Yet, notions have left my mind My feelings and views are scattered On my face, a faint answer shows.

Very interesting. Yes, definitely alcohol can affect how things are seen.
