Nice twist to the stories I’ve read lately about drinking until it all gets numb. Still, quite depressing.

Some great feelings and descriptions here, even if some of them are a tad cliche (burning amber liquid is a bit of a staple). It’s lovely, but its strength gets sapped by some grammar stuff throughout, run-on sentences and “an surreal” which should be “a surreal”. Could use a clean-up editing run through, but still some strong themes here.
