Sipping Sin

let me have another sip
of your sin
here hold the cup
as I pour you in
the bitter sweetness
of your taste
aching on my tongue
I can not erase
deep inner burning
as I drink you down
no matter what I do
no coolness found
I can not remove
your taste from my lips
such is the punishment
of sin in sips

"Pour yourself thick, when it is you, that you spread."

This is very nicely done, Helen.

God bless America, my home sweet home.

Perfectly penned once more. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
