En Vino Veritas

In wine there is truth... Sometimes.

Is this the first glass of wine, 
the twenty-first glass? 
Every bottle makes me wonder 
if I might find you at the bottom; 
even when I know I won't. 
But no matter, 
I'll just keep drinking. 
This glass, the next glass, 
the first cask to the last cask. 
Every bottom an empty bottom 
and every cork a new hope. 
En vino veritas, they say, 
but all I find is the lie 
that comes from an empty glass, 
that leaves me the drunken fool.
