FPF Day 22 – Red Wine and Carrion
“One should always be drunk. That’s all that matters…But with what? With wine, with poetry, or with virtue, as you chose. But get drunk.”

I’ll admit that I like more than red wine. In fact, I like gin and tonics, margaritas (on the rocks), champagne, cider, and beer. But…red wine has been a favorite, and a staple, for a long time. When I went to college (years and years ago), I was pretty much a light beer drinker. I didn’t know a lot about alcohol, other than I liked how it made me feel. A boyfriend I had in college helped me to learn about wine, and eventually, I came to really understand and love reds…cheap to expensive.
Red wine also tends to (if I drink too much) make me rather horny.
So here it is…the count down to the end of February PhotoFest. (And dammit…I just noticed a crack in that glass…)
And BTW…Charles Baudelaire is one of my favorite poets. I was introduced to him in college with the poem “Carrion,” which has somehow always stuck with me.
