RDP Wednesday: BOTTLE

Andrew Wyeth
There could be something sweet
in that bottle on the shelf.
It’s been up there for awhile, I can tell.
Does that matter? I think not.
I think there could be something sweet in that
bottle on the shelf.
I could take it down
and take a taste
I think there is something sweet, in that bottle on the shelf.
I’ll pull up a chair
and take that bottle down
I’ll take a taste. Just a little taste. It will be sweet, I just know it
and after I take a taste
I’ll put the bottle back on the shelf,
I’ll just leave that sweet old bottle there for somebody, for anybody else.
