Drinking Song
Drinking Song
I will stay up late tonight
but I don't care
for I am drunk
on the wine of creation.
An unknown lover
holds my hand
and drinks with me
to all we don't know
amidst the shadow world
of today
and still to come.
We care nothing
for the theories
and speculations,
the notions and combobulations.
What we know is this
feeling within,
this stream that flows
from somewhere to us,
making us like flowers
set aflame to drift
on transparent rivers
of joy.
