A TOAST

A TOAST

A Poem by Rene Velez



I sipped it dark and bitter today
though it does not reflect my days
more likened to the past I left behind
where the one eyed king is blind...

I have my ways written in rhyme

hope and hell given to the masses
they hold my words,
poured into Crown Glasses
I am separated into classes
they, kings blind of my passion
I am in my ways...

blissfully, I have connected spiritually

written in native tongues
my ghosts sit with me
they drink of me,
for we share the same cup,
creatively...
of what is written in blood.
