Not that first time, but some other night I ended up staring at a ceiling for six hours as the stuff burnt hell in my belly. A quarter of a liter, maybe? The sun crept up across the wall, and the day was in full force by the time I could finally fall asleep. I drank a bit less of the stuff after that, settling for milder fare. Like whisky. 040307 ... pipedream what we will drink when we live in our garret, watching the sun go down and weaving our art into each other. if we weren't teetotal, apart and rich.or meant to live anywhere together, or other similar little details. 040307 ... pete please never try to make it in the corner of your residence room in an old ice tea bottle.. it will taste like cold blooded murder if you do.. from experience i speak.. 040308 ...
