The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Leftover Wine

Bleary eyes search 
the darkened corners
Of the strange room.
Where am I? 
Who brought me here?
My  mind spins 
wildly in rhythm with 
the quaking of my soul.
Eye's Burning
with unshed tears.
I strangle on my sorrow 
as I try to recall 
something more 
than the taste 
of left over wine.

This poem evokes such anguish, of things that might have been. Very moving! ...Carrie
