BEACONS
The LIQUOR sign is a bright beacon and
Those beautiful bottles beckon but
(Always a but)
The ten in my pocket
Buys only Old Crow or Kentucky Deluxe.
That’s some bottom-shelf bourbon, baby.
But
But!
(Always a but)
There is a brighter beacon and
Her beautiful bottom beckons and
The ten in my pocket
Buys nothing.
Her ass is top-shelf.
