The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

In This Old House Dwell Spirits

In this old house 
Dwell spirits 
Moving from here to there
Quickly and quietly
Without form
As to not disturb the air

Some spirits are of the living 
Some spirits are of the dead
From generations past
And from the future 
And from  in-betweens
They fare

The spirits move 
Into Walls and halls
Floors and doors
Windows
Looking out 
And looking in

For few outsiders can see them
Or know them
For when inside
They are out 
And when outside 
They are in
