Should I say what I
feel, or what attracts readers?
Tempting to sell out.
Silence erases
thoughts and stress like dry markers
wiped clean from white boards.
Post-tryptophan, we
watch Forrest Gump and digest
the day’s memories.
Don’t count calories.
Savor silken pumpkin, tart
cranberries. Taste joy.
Tempting smells – so strong
they nearly satiate the
appetite – drift by.
We are all in search
of the quote that defines us.
Self in sentence form.
They’ll watch football. We’ll
cook. Men and women. Hunters
and gatherers still.
Like a cracked eggshell,
once broken it cannot be
redeemed nor reforged.
The more I compute,
the lazier I get, and the
saggier the couch.
I’m the kitchen air
traffic controller, and the
oven my runway.
