The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Queries of the Still

Absent in this patience
This disconnected sigh
Where I can know the endless
And where I endlessly design

The comfort of resistance
Rebellious foresight
Where crosses bring you comfort
Because you crucify the light

And I am all but changing
The gathering of days
Where I am all I can be
Though there’s nowhere left to stay

Teach me of your reasons
Tell me why you cry
The silence comes before you
The connections fall to lies

Awaken what you wanted
We see the fall of truth
Where I will disconnect it
And show you all the proof

Awakening in patience
The questions in our hearts
Where everyone can end it
And we know just how it starts
