^{I,m currently reading through Proverbs and came across the following in chapter 23: 29-35.  I don’t have any particular reason for posting this, but it does describe a truth.}

 Who is suffering?
    Who is uneasy?
    Who has arguments?
    Who has complaints?
    Who has unnecessary wounds?
    Who has glazed eyes?—
³⁰         those who linger over wine;
        those who go looking for mixed wine.
³¹ Don’t look at wine when it is red,
    when it sparkles in the cup,
    going down smoothly.
³² In the end, it bites like a snake
    and poisons like a viper.
³³ Your eyes will see strange things,
    and your heart will speak distorted words.
³⁴ You will be like one who lies down while out on the sea^[c]
    or one who lies on top of a mast.
³⁵ “Though hit, I feel no pain;
    though beaten up, I don’t know anything about it.
When I wake up,
    I’ll look for wine again!”
