An anecdotal

Around me flows the word at large
Enraging me with overcharge.
A master plan of heady wine
But not a master plan of mine.

I do admit I am a part
A debit from the very start
And cannot out this world to see
So therefore know not what will be.

I've tried in every way I know
To siphon out the secret flow
But secret symbols snow my mind
At least the ones that I can find.

All those that rise from out this brine
Alchemize a virulent wine.
Each tacit taste an agony      
Or philosophic ecstasy.

So teetotal is my surcease
An anecdotal sort of peace.

Only you could have written this
A wonderful piece of philosophy
Peace with yourself is the ultimate goal
Understanding it is not important
After a few drinks, it gets real peaceful
Very well written, as always

I do believe you are, and always will be, more of an asset than a debit...

Hugs...
