We Drink Because We’re Poets Poetry Prompt.
A god for a day
Having power in my hands
Only for a day
I’d let the world stay
While I live a life I want
Adventure and fun
Visit Angkor Watt
Machu Pichu and Stonehenge
Without a ticket
Food and booze will flow
As I share them with new friends
From around the globe
A party will grow
From Greenland to New Zealand
Its noise will shake stars
Maybe I would change
The mentality of man
One drink at a time
Legends of Windemere 
sounds like my kind of party 😉

We did a bizarre 50’s to 80’s jump. Long Island basically missed spring and leaped into summer.

Sadly, it’s Edward . . . and I’m an Ares. Not sure what that means in the grand scheme of things.

OMG a drunken war god is NOT good! LOL

Well, the swords are locked up, so it shouldn’t be too bad.
LikeLike
Meno male! Glad to hear that anyway…but still I think there’s a Baccus hiding there somewhere…maybe a Dionysus…you just don’t have the right godly wish to be Ares!
LikeLike
Eh, I definitely have a lot more Ares moments than Dionysus moments. I have the stubbornness and temper. Maybe I’m more Norse than Greek. Well, I’m mostly Russian actually.

Ah..that explains everything…good old Loki!!!
