Yes, 'Tis true,
We write while sober,
Record cross-faded,
Mind you.

Here together recollect,
Remember? Dismember.
Rues that reminisce,
Love must thus infect.

Jaded by the past,
May I ask, why?
And thence;
It's evermore.

"Verse cannot be plagiarized, regardless of one's conviction to do so;
or not to do so—however inclined, or uninclined."

“This is the lesson: never give in, never give in, . . . never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
-Churchill
Keep friends close and enemies closer, and hence, wield spirits in their stead.
