Monk Life

I had just bought a fine bottle of bourbon
A day later I decided not to drink for awhile  
It's a really good bottle too
I'm not anything close to being an alcoholic  
I was just drinking a little bit almost every day
 I've never had an addictive personality
Except for sex  
Takes two to tango though  
Is masturbation sex ?
Caffeine is my real problem  
I love the boost but it doesn't love me
Medical stuff too boring to go into  
Then there's sugar
Another nemesis
Cutting back on the processed stuff
Cantaloupe and watermelon are saving the days
 
Translation :
 
I'm cleaning up
It's almost enjoyable
Social events coming up could skew the process
One moment at a time I think
Been in a reclusive state for awhile now
Almost monk like
Tea in the garden life
I just need to find the garden
I would like that ......
