A Farewell and An Irish Saturday Night Drinking Song

All right to get it out of the way, I have nothing negative to say about An Irish Saturday Night Drinking Song, BRILLIANT. I actually laughed aloud when reading it at work, got a few funny looks, but it was worth it. My favorite part was "Monk saw in the back a fine young lass. Stevie-Boy told him she takes it in the....", I appriciate your sense of humor.

With "A Farewell" a see sort of a repeat of a contrast between chaotic/broken images with beauty and love as we saw in your last workshop, and I think you should keep working with that, because so far it's great. Your iamges in this story are wonderful and can easily be envisioned even if sober, which I believe is key - you allow the reader into drug manifested world without needing experiences themselves. I don't think you need to outwardly state "Hey I'm tripping and I'm in love!", I think the images speak for themselves.
