"Abaddon Noir" Angelic Wine
Lips a flame smeared in sanguine rouge
Closing her eyes in sweet anticipation she sips
The torrid wine as if it were a sacrament
Savoring the taste and quivering salaciously.
A full-bodied wine acclaimed for its uniqueness
Its fruit birthed in virgin soil mystically nurtured.
The liquid purple-black and layered with rare
Scents and flavors aged to a slight effervescence
With a distinctive gravelly minerality to the taste.
Yet it has an ethereal delicacy with surprising density.
A complex vintage streaked in smoked meat, tar,
Wild herb and leather giving it a flirty pungent note.
The wine is named for the vineyard in which it was made:
 “Abaddon Noir”… the infernal abode of Diabolus,
And bottled in the clear brilliance of celestial tears
Collected from angels before their bodies are fermented
Into the most intoxicating mixture of blood and flesh.
The slogan on the label reads: “From Hell to Your Table!”.

Thanks Tina for your wonderful comments. Honestly, I think my wording comes from reading poets like Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Sylvia Plath and Pablo Neruda. Â One can't help but be influenced by ones favorite writers.
