POISON APPLE

It all starts with:
you don’t even like whiskey
but on a whim you mixed the Oban
with honeycrisp apple juice
smitten never mind
no scotch gourmand
would dream of such an
lol thing

Poison apple thus born
and too the argument
forever yesterday
tried to convince you
at the rate we’re going
should buy the twice-as-big
generic blended bottle
(Oban is meant to be savored)
but your focus on the
corn and peat
would yes ruin the experience

Last straw:
you said I should just buy the big one
get you vodka for your mixed drinks
sneakyfucker
had to put the Kirkland back after that
besides you can’t go cheap on drinks
during a pandemic

Author's Note
On the one hand, I feel like the last 2 lines have just the slightest (SLIGHTEST!) shade of Buk in them. On the other hand, he was all about the cheap shit by the metric ton, lol. Forgive me for my theme tag, Hank.
