Photobucket had recently changed their policy and now all the images from my 650+ blog posts are disabled. I am slowly editing them by moving my images to my own server at AWS, but it will take time. In case there is a particular old post you want to see the images of, kindly drop me a mail at mizohican@gmail.com and I'll keep that at a high priority. Thank you.

Chp 183. An ode to vodka


An Ode to Vodka

vodka
runs deep
like still waters
cutting through swampy marsh

images
conjure wildly,
hazy contorted mirrors
swiveling in every directions

vodka
finely refreshing
a rejuvenating potion
resuscitating my stifled adolescence

symphony
emitting softly
untold melodic rhythm
choreographing within my head

vodka
my comrade,
abandon me not
lest my soul perishes

pains
all forgotten
like a castaway
lost forever at sea

misery
gone forever
every sorrowful thought
banished to Kingdom come

vodka
so pristine
sparkling like crystal
enticing me to replenish

freedom
I experience
every shackle unfettered
such an overwhelming liberation!

vodka
my salvation
ne’er betraying me
oh most reliable companion

hear
my confession
two bottles drained
whilst penning this poem

hic!
pardon me
time to depart
tomorrow awaits a hangover
