it's a spry puppy of a whisky with a sly hint of old socks

my best bottle of laphroaig is nigh gone
my one bottle of laphroaig is done
at the last drop
a squeeze and a hop
prove that all proof
like our tonic the sun
slips into an ocean of one
and then what you do
as that nip drips through
is surrender yourself to P
and a casual touch of brythonic
