The image of a buffet is clear. But I think, perhaps, it symbolises self image? What others perceive, body image maybe?
I like the way you mirror the dishonesty of politicians to those ' buffet so called guests'
For me it is a poem to unravel and ponder. Rereading it and hoping to discover hidden layers, much like a magic eye picture. I can never see those and I guess that in itself speaks volumes. :)
