brindled element

∴ pour me another
happenstance
drawn from oaken barrel
to steady the scales
to balance the sweet
with complexity, with depth

through nitrogen-induced
liquid cascades
every atom adrift—
between enspelled spaces
a contact improvisational
adventure unyielding

am i the wayward electron
or stray proton,
seeking chaos (carbonation)
elements in fragments
each meeting
a (re)connection

imbibe
this shaman’s draft
a whimsical
flight of brindled
temporal brews ∴
