This week's challenge: Food
Do you hesitate
to reach for the margarine
hidden in the back
behind the ketchup
and something long forgotten
while what used to be
grapes spill like raisins
onto the floor as raindrops
past the orange glow
of an ancient waste
similar to what awaits
in the margarine
which might be rather
a lichened tundra of memory
of Thanksgiving last.
Hrmmm... very nice imagery, and yet... eww?!
ReplyDeleteNow I have the urge to go clean my fridge. ;)
OMG When did you peek in My fridge? I loved the "ancient waste" terrific!
