Hi duke,
the revision has a lot of merit, but I do find I'm missing some of the details (the specific drugs, the Russians for instance, and the new title
rather undercuts the impact of the 'river' image.)

detached, forgetting - niggles at me a bit. If the former, how the latter? Probably just me.
Would 'memories' work (seems to give a slightly more fluid phrase than the singular).
Perhaps have this verse in the present tense also?

I think 'clear common sense' is over-egging this particular pudding (especially after 'sensible' - nicely played by the way Smile
- compos mentis/speaking clearly, sensibly).
(you risk a groan with the pun at the end, but I think it's worth it Smile )


He rises pale and sensible,
a bright river
his enemies have failed to damn


Best, Knot
