sapho juice

"It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of Sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion."

I realized I'm doing things in a really stupid way: the energy drinks are overpriced, and if all I want is the cognitive boost I should just buy the straight herbal pills and dose myself with 2 grams of panax ginseng and 400mg of ginkgo bilboa per day, and just drink coffee or tea for caffeine. I'll browse around the health shops this weekend.

To the Reader

Time will assuage.
Time's verses bury
Margin and page
In commentary,

For gloss demands
A gloss annexed
Till busy hands
Blot out the text,

And all's coherent.
Search in this gloss
No text inherent:
The text was loss.

The gain is gloss.

-- J.V. Cunningham
