Poem: Fine Wine
Fine Wine
Wine
should be
savored like
a grand epic
filtered throughout with
barely audible hints
of blackberry and currant,
joined among swirls of licorice.
A dressed-up ballroom duo, noshing
creamy avocado wedges a-
top crispy crackers heaped with slices of
sharp orange cheddar from Wisconsin.
Accompanied by a sweet, good
looking Filipino man
that croons steamy songs
to pale, earthy girls
beneath moon’s blush
nightly, on
a cruise
ship.
A poem that starts with one syllable per line, increases to ten syllables, and then decreases back down to one is called a Double Etheree (or sometimes a stacked or diamond Etheree).
The Etheree form was created by Arkansas poet Taylor Armstrong in the late 1970s.
