“That’s what I do: I make coffee and occasionally succumb to suicidal nihilism. But you shouldn’t worry — poetry is still first. Cigarettes and alcohol follow.” ― Anne Sexton

Well 3 out of five ain't bad and I stopped drinking and smoking years ago now . . . . . . .  ha ha ha 

I adore the work of Sexton and as is so often the case I admire the work of alcoholics . . . . . .
