Wine Venues with Local Face Masks

By metaphormachine

When I swore to God that time

I was caught.

 

It has something of a certain lightness

without conscience

Superego

of the many things around it.

 

But important things today, the whole

where the slime lives

like live performance

switch off

shade

my mirror image of a guitar

Am I?

indefinable

in that closing off.

 

News after Halloween

bared the masks

local wine

for facial masks everyday.

 

Okay, the everlasting writing

for noise acts

have

we are past deeds

constantly, constantly

that's live performance

featured hold.

 

I do not want this, it must have an end, my darling!

End.

    I wear a wine mask sometimes. I kinda wish I didnt need it. Have missed you!

  • A former member wrote: reminds me a bit of a poem i wrote called "party monsters".... the pretentious seem to flock to wine. the poet, the comic, the artist sees what others don't. wit is one of my favorite flavors, and you do it quite well. i've always enjoyed the irony of halloween. the costume a person wears is often very telling, as well... it is nice to read another of your contributions. your voice is missed.
