eduardo tee - Drunk

I hoisted the earth
between two fingers
drank me
a river

tipped me
to my lips
let that red rush
fill my throat
my soul

with fish
and polished stones

I smiled wild
cedar tannin stained teeth
again I thrust
the earth up

again a toast
to the sky
stumbled drunk
against tall trees
forever leaning
green to the sun
