Come to the Party

Come to the party And do Not show up sober. The entry fee Is your sober, serious self. Hand it over at the door. You may stand Or you may sit But only if Your Heart's in hand. In this tavern, We Empty more than glass, you see; As self and pretence We let pass. So lift a glass, now Free of all You think you are Or want to be. No self, no plan Er to be free. C. 2005 Shamsuddin jim Norton Sign in to see full entry.
