The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Human Spirit

Is restless until it finds rest
in something little known
hopeless when it picks
and prides in recycled facts
man at birth is crude creature-
encyclopedia of ignorance
with efforts and experience
becomes new creature-
encyclopedia of knowledge
Human spirit is hungry
till it drinks fresh water
and eats fresh food picked
served on the dish of struggle
