The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

When the Earth Was Not Round

Volcanoes dignified this land
barren and deserted
Bound to be an abaddon 
scared and agitated

Fed on flesh and corpses
hungry and underfed
Needed more to devour
lustful and crazed

But this lust for blood never ended
when the earth we lived wasn't round
