    The solace of lined pages
    is desirable in the mind and heart
    of a hard-worked man.

    Freedom is found at the end
    of a journey through a
    long-awaited beer can.

    A heart shaped sweat stain
    on your work shirt,
    you've got soul and emotion and
    broken skin
    bleeding from the fingers.

    A hearty smile
    and an anxious laugh
    about just how much is
    left of the day.

    Purple skies and
    vibrant minds,
    picking and weeding through
    the do's and dont's.

    3 enebriated days later,
    we'll do it again.
