Everything is Delicious
You cannot scream at the world
no matter what you know
from
behind your sunglasses,
your gorgeous
tattooed
blogroll.
It doesn’t matter what you know
you have to feed the world
not a feast
just a bit of
sugar on a biscuit
if that’s your thing
or
a drum beginning,
one
single silent stroke
of color.
Wear your story
on your skin, be it
a smell of burning
that echoes
a curse word,
a moment of pain.
Everything is food
that’s alive,
requires work,
or if it comes with
a side of pickles
or burns the back of the throat.
Everything is a metaphor so
ruin some shirts,
Loathe the sucking
of fingers
But record it
overtop the sweet
sounds of your laughter.
Everything is food
get your bib
get your spade
you cannot drive thru
this
is one way
with no window.
Everything is delicious
that reminds
us
and shows us our small
and
amazing
lives
going by
too fast.
