Hedonists Headstone

Hedonists Headstone

Each velvet drip
Every warming sip
Time slips torturously by...
 

Incarcerated by habit
Crudely engraving granite
Chips and fragments fly...

Thick winter rain 
Crippling abdominal pain 
Patiently waiting to die... 

The cool, smooth
headstone of the hedonist
Reflects eerily in moonlit sky...
