A Jug of Wine

A jug of wine, and thou beside me
in the wilderness,
sang the ancient poet.

When you’re with people who are really good, you don’t want to be the person who sucks. That’s kind of been the philosophy steering my career, as weird as that sounds: to work with people who inspire or challenge me in some way. | Jon Hamm, C for Men Magazine

When you find a man
Who transforms
Every part of you
Into poetry,
Who makes each one of your hairs
Into a poem,
When you find a man,
Capable,
As I am
Of bathing and adorning you
With poetry,
I will beg you
To follow him without hesitation,
It is not important
That you belong to me or him
But that you belong to poetry.
