sip

to the memory of richard armour

a sip may not slaketh the thirst of a throat

but wetteth a dry curiosity

and maketh experience larger than mote

and braketh a wee adiposity.

..

and shouldst ye partaketh in spirited drink

whilst feeling inherently frisky,

forsaketh the gulp for a sip as you blink

for methinks it becometh less risky.
