days of poetry & wine
mel c thompson's publishing arm is trying something new. publishing poems on bottles of wine. this bottle of poetry vino arrived on my doorstep last weekend. i was - am - thrilled to receive it. but i am conflicted. should i un-screw the cork & drink of the wine? or should i leave it as it is like an unopened book. i don't know. i am a wine newbie too. i don't know what type of wine jonathan hayes' haiku graces. so i think i'll leave wine un-drunk. easier for me since my beverages of choice/vice are coffee & beer. still, i can't guarantee i won't drink it. the holidays are fast approaching. i can envision an evening when i eyeball the bottle sitting on my kitchen counter & it beckons me like a siren to ulysses's men. should i succumb to its song i hope to find a sprig of moly to conjure me back to form.
