I've had just enough time to... drink alone
Taken while sitting outside a pub in Kuching with the moon and others for company
I’m a
lonely drinker
Making
toasts to myself
And the
ghost across the table
The
ghost nods with its glass
Empty it
in silent acknowledgement
And no
advice for me
Nor do I
have need of any, for
In the
company of sympathetic ghosts
Who needs
noise and companions?
Drinking
is best done alone
Drinking
is best done alone
In one’s
own company
Loneliness
flavored the wine unlike any
It is
silly to drink to be happy
Silly to
try to drown anything
The only
reason to drink is to make -
Loneliness
a pleasant company
