The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Chop Wood and Carry Water

Each seeming small challenge 
we all face each & every day
occurs as a repeated test
to see if we can make work play

The slightest flicker of agitation
during day to day mundanity
signals ego borne stagnation 
attachment disturbing serenity

It is only when we truly transcend
affinity to the subtlest ego urge
that we obviate need to reincarnate 
divine entwined in a bliss surge
