Is the way we talk about poetry taking its clues from wine?

Blending is rampant. Structure is discussed and revered. Describing wine is a poetic genre.


Not to mention the paring of wine and food and poets: schools have been built. Palates debated.

  1. IN THE WETNESS

    a tongue may feel its own shape
    be cooled
    & confident to speak of color
    curled over
    light through glass

    the promise of intelligence
    conspiring with the ages
    and so many whispers

    who does not take a sip
    and all of a sudden feel
    rich and
    important
