"Dionysus and the Final Glass"

Dionysus and the Final Glass
by G. Eric Latham, Jr.


Death, everyone feels it
everyday, in some way
not another, Yeah I'll have another drink
Such an absurd question
to ask one who is too tired to think
Let's sink the entire ship
As their tears slip out
Another biblical flood
So cheers to our very own drowning
Better wine than water
Even the Crucified agreed
So tonight we dine, this one last time
Laughing into the cold night's sky
For the ever present tomorrow
we die...
Keep today alive
