“Drunken Humanitarian (Sonnet) Go, get drunk, my friend! Get so drunk with a vision unseen, even monsoon begins to cry! Get so drunk with an unbent cause, even bosons bow to thy might! Get so drunk with incorruptibility, you emerge a walking Wardencliffe. Get so drunk with accountability, no Rorschach can analyze your spirit. Get so drunk with uncontaminated justice, every government keeps a file on you! Get so drunk with untainted love, conclaves convene to decipher you! Any ape can find salvation in liquid escape, takes a human to endure through devastation. Any rodent of the gutter can drown in alcohol, it takes a giant to drink the world's poison.”
