Some Things I Like
Once upon a time
Late into a beer festival
I saw a drink called
Dark Stormy Sea of Amnesia (8%)
When placed onto the table
I watched as it swished and swirled
Stormy waves settling within thick fog
The tiniest of bubbles
Nestling into spaces
Inside and outside of the froth
Travelling, no swaying
Like you can only sway
Walking back from a pub singing
(Or on the water)
Mesmerising
Beyond mesmerising
Hypnotic
I never saw the drink again
So I contacted Storm Brewery
And they told me
It didn't exist
If that's true, it's a really great idea
It should be invented
I was there
Should I go on?
The pub was old fashioned
With nooks and crannies to sit in
I chose a prime position
There's a photo of me from that night
Or another
Drinking something dark
Looking like I do in my mind
I love pubs with nooks
Looking like I do in my mind
And beer
That doesn't exist
