Slake
Satiate or moderate -
you offer sips, I opt for slake.
I give to give for you to take.
Libate licentious! raucaus rake!
Upend the mug in throated draughts -
no subtle grins but belly laughs.
My cup of tea philosophy is sweet deep drinking anarchy.
Entire seas between the knees...
a-drip, a-drop, a-turn-at-ease.
You tell me "yr too much" I glee!
"noway. I'm absolutely free!"

Who lives in a shell
If you leave her alone
She feels perfectly well.
