Armenian CognacA bottle of cognac from Yerevanis on my kitchen tableas closed as that historyand as silentIf I broke it down I'd lose a hundred yearsof loveand if I opened it the ancestorshanging here in black and whitewould come down from the wallsto have a glass with meI know a history that's been forgottenand I know why that bottle of cognacstands with such singular pride....If I broke it now I'd lose a hundred years of my people's history
