Why is it so bitter?
Dark chocolate, coffee, and this liquor,
heartbreak, betrayal, and crushing defeat,
all taste so bitter the very first time.
You'll know when you grow up.
Bitterness is but a facade
for the expression of terroir
of the peoples in your heart.
Another sip and you'll find
this bitterness a familiar friend
down a winding path through the senses,
ever-present, unnoticed, but felt,
that we could never do without.
