June: 369 BRINK June 23 2023
The world was at the brink of war*
Nuclear missiles placed off Florida’s shore
For the Cuban missile crisis
Involved nuclear devices
We were closer to the brink than ever before
Just like in act 5 scene 8 of Macbeth
I was at the brink of death
For I could not flee
When you drew close to me
I almost died from the smell of your breath
