The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Ancestral Spirits

Nature is a work of pureness
Through the fiery chaos a green side is born
The water of purity every body of it
Purer than the last

The deer running through the woods
The bears catching fish
The fish that are swimming
A timeless beauty of nature

Did my ancestors see this?
Did they feel as I fell?
Of course they did
Bu they saw more

My escape to nature was not their escape
It was their life

What I see is death
What I see is the destruction of humanity
The wolves are being slaughtered!!!
Out of pure stupidity
Creatures are being eliminated for stupidity
You fools!!!

Can you see you malice
We need harmony
All you are promoting is chaos & discord

Ancestors look into my eyes and into my soul
Guide me to live in harmony
When I see true nature I have tears forming

When I am in nature 
I can feel the presence
Of my Native American ancestors

Apache, Aztec, Navajo & Ute
