Red grape lips Each kiss wine Drunk on love Sour grape lips Acid kiss Hung over Jack Horne for Michael’s contest

The diversity carries this verse into the "very special" category. Love the message! :)

Enjoyed reading your work of contrasts..That is the way life is sometimes...Something seems and looks great like a ripe bunch of grapes but when sampled it sets the teeth on edge...Try typing in Zephyr Of Higher Learning and read that one and maybe try Young Buck..I don't believe that my work of 2008 is even here..Sara
