Quaff; To drink a beverage heartily
One
drink to warm you, as you slump down in the chair.
One drink to
ease the pain, uncoiling muscles from a long day's slog.
One
drink to make you laugh at a terrible joke
One to make you
stronger, smarter, wittier, the world blunted
One drink to drive
the demons from your thoughts, the ones of memories and hauntings
that plague your mind at night… only when you're sober though,
without drink to dull your mind.
"Haven't you had enough?"
"Nah, just one more." … Always just one more
Precious
still, elixir of life, fountain of solace.
"Bottoms up"
