In vino veritas,
but wine can
also be
a way
out
of
the
sad truth trapping us.
Dipsomania
craves a
high to
fend
off
the
low of
depression.
There is the high of
drink and drugs,
and there’s the
opium
of
the
toiling masses,
the wine that one imagines
to be transubstantiated
into the blood of Him
who had blue water
turn into a
red
and
tasty wedding beverage.
We cannot change
our blue to red
by wine gods
or
by
the
Word of God’s red blood.
Changing blue to red is not a
matter of Spirit or spirits.
Red bourgeois blood
must be spilled
so
we
can
have a red state for all the people.
