Why all this talk
about destroying your ego?
Don't take this little 'i'
for granted.
It's the last grape to be crushed,
Through that final pressing
the wine tastes its own flavor,
attains distinction,
and learns the secret knowledge
of the fool:
this nectar was fermented on the vine.
God was already drunk
when the song of the stars
burst out of her lips, so
dark and sweet, and somehow
shining!
Painting by Bartolomeo Cavarozzi
