The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still

She lets out a wail
Looks on then groans
As he starts to tail the light
Oh lord why
Why should my taste be different
Why does the wind 
Not play its flute
Why does gravity hold its pull
Oh how come 
With all my gestures
With all my sounds 
The world remains still
