I have to admit, I didn't catch the absinthe reference the first time through. (Hey, I'm not a big drinker.) I did like the poem though, even more now that I fully understand it. Short, but sweet.
i agree with gabrielle about the punctuation. but what really amused me was a poem in the romantic style about the romantics' beverage of choice. how fun is that?
Put you hate on paper
They won’t know it’s you
All people are the same
Gain major fame
Sign here in blood
And you’ll win the game
It’ll sell well
But a trip to hell
Hell, what’s it matter
Have a bestseller
In your wallet now
Choose wisely
Poverty or riches
Your own bitches
Stop being one
