Some Assembly Required

Use the right tools

Glasses of various types of beer

Note: Below the poem is an audio clip of the author reading the poem.

If, at first, you don’t succeed,
Try a pint or two of mead;
If you still can find no cheer,
Perhaps a friendly flask of beer.

Later, when you sober up
and know the folly of your cup,
it would be wise to take a look
at that dread instruction book.
