I’ve tasted your wine
let it numb my lips
intoxicate my Reason

And as any other
Poison
I’ve expelled you from my body

Grown to repulsion
not to distaste
but to bitter restraint

You call it order
But what authority pegged
You
the qualified

to tamper with
My mind
taint
My purest birth

So leave
I’ve tasted your wine
and I resent it
