Thanks, Erica.
I know! I won't hold my breath for a style change. Your lyrics are bold, you say what you want to say, and I feel your confidence gives your lyrics integrity, even if I wouldn't always phrase lines the same way as you.

You're welcome, as always. I'm glad to see your motivation and determination as a songwriter aren't ebbing. Having the creative urge well from within, independent of the input of others, is a good thing. I can tell you get a lot of joy out of making your music, so I recognize a kindred spirit when I read your lyrics.

I prefer "one more" to the second "another," but what I really wish for would be a few words that suggest not just *one* more sip, but rather one of *many* that we know are going to continue indefinitely, since the black leaves are perpetually sprouting, never killed off completely by the pesticide.
