A whisky rinse

By cadymae

I press my face through your skin and look around
    Surveying my handiwork and others as well

Your sweetness belies the wreckage inside.

The broken 

                  un  us- able ness
 
                                                     of it all

You are best gazed upon though smoky hi-balls

                             and false-bright society.
