Rocks . . .


(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartending_terminology)
". . . "On the rocks" refers to liquor poured over ice cubes, and a "rocks drink" is a drink served on the rocks. Rocks drinks are typically served in a rocks glass, highball glass, or Collins glass, all of which refer to a relatively straight-walled, flat-bottomed glass; the rocks glass is typically the shortest and widest, followed by the highball which is taller and often narrower, then the Collins which is taller and narrower still. . . In bartending, the term "straight up" (or "up") refers to an alcoholic drink that is shaken or stirred with ice and then strained and served without ice in a stemmed glass. . . This is contrasted with a drink served "neat" – a single, unmixed liquor served without being chilled and without any water, ice, or other mixer. . .  Neat drinks are typically served in a rocks glass, shot glass, snifter, Glencairn glass or copita. . . "


 But, of course, 'on the rocks' can also mean spoiled, failed, shipwrecked or bankrupt . . .
here it's simply a title, for an as yet unfinished song, evoked by what I can't even explain . . .
