Words:  game, shock, overshadowed, wicked, rock, fleeting,
        sounds, stick, glass, sugar, hand, shots


Could use a shot
of bourbon 
on the rocks
in a thick cut glass.
Hand me one, sugar,
would you?  A wicked
time has passed.  At
last we are less over-
shadowed by shock
over the fleetingness
of life.  It is not
just a game.  Now,
sounds sizzle in the streets,
shops welcome customers.
Laughter is kiting to
the sky.  Besides, I am weary
of suffocating in a mask
that sticks to my lips.
Bring me some chips,
and a shot of bourbon
on the rocks.
