Whiskey fine Brandy wine, The former I shouldn't drink The latter is just fine. Brandy is warm and eases my throat when it aches, Whiskey makes me question life, Too much for my liking. I'm a simple type, I rarely drink sweet, fruity kinds. I'll drink ***** as the Russians do, One shot followed by a pickle or two. But I do not drink much, Just a taste. Each time the bitter burning liquid touches my tongue, It reminds me that I'm still here and I still have much to do.
