Vintage

I bought a bottle
Of Portuguese wine today
The one with the
Full figured bottle.
Back in college
I used those artsy bottles
To hold candles
To give off a seductive light
To seduce the girls
I could never seduce.

I thought this wine
Had gone the way
Of bell bottoms.
It's been modernized
With a screw top cap.
Imagine, a wine
From Portugal where
Cork grows like kudzu
Using a screw top.

But the taste was the same…
Somewhat sweet with
Just a hint of bitterness.
