Rum and Coke
simple is the task of this glass cylinder
when called upon from the cupboard
filled to the brim with ice and the bitter contents of a liquor bottle
condensation on its surface contends the grip of a steady hand
but a simple lift to the lips ensures a splash
which stings the senses of the tongue
yet this glass cylinder and its sour contents
possess the strength to create controversy and destroy
the destined path of lovers
and summon sins buried in the shadows of a soul –
which was once considered faithful
