Slave to Numbers

Starred's "Call from Paris" - Putting me in mind of This Mortal Coil.
Caffeine-free for over two months (a couple of iced teas notwithstanding), I fell off the wagon and into a cup of half-caf this morning at a local cafe.  And to raise the chips on the rebellion, I added cream and plenty of unrefined sugar.  My mind expanded at the rate of the universe.  Reality brightened like the color palette in a Peter Greenaway movie, or am I thinking Ken Russell - Greenaway could be rather dark . . .

Synapses were firing like a pinball machine being gunned well and hitting all the extra points and free plays.  Enlightened, I was fully understanding how this beverage ruled my days for twenty years.
