Quaff ... Lifelong

Today's word is "quaff" ... kwof, kwaf ... to drink a beverage, copiously and with hearty enjoyment. (Dictionary.com)

Lifelong
I have never understood,
The allure of smoky spaces,
Where the rule is spirits quaffed,
And friends sit only in those places.

Rather, I would be with those,
Who gather at more than one venue,
Sharing lives at intersections,
That declare their friendship true.
