Wine Sutra











Lips are for wine
of a particular kind
but grape drawn intoxication
dark red or gold
is discolored and poor
against the liquid maturities
of heart aged wineries
that give distilled word-essence
and the exotic silent aftertaste –
and yet, for all the delights
of lip and heart
your extensive vineyard gives
it is the trace of fingertipped grace
on fingertip-lips
that’s wine unsurpassed.
