You Are Some Special Dish!

by Everlasting   Nov 17, 2016


Oh mother gracious!
What is this?

----

I once had bliss!
But now?

[ Ah, spit. Spit! ]

----

Love, you were like a dish set up on a table.
One, that was meant to be not taste by me!

But oh dear goodness gracious!

[ Please. Spit. Spit! ]

----

For years,
I hungered for a little bite of you.
I indulged, and now,
just look at me!

I am round like a circle
circling the table
biting
more
and
more
of
You

-----

See,
I want to finish you till the last bite.
But I also want for you
to last forever more!

I want to be filled by you everyday,
But I don't want to ever feel completely full!

------

It's just that you are like this!
Some dish!
And now, all I want to do is

[ah, Spit. Spit! ]

Oh Nay!

I just want to eat...

    You know for some reason while reading this I could see a puppy running around the dinner table! Maybe its the way you have presented it and the imagery also takes me down another route too! Another interesting read!

    Absolutely loved this. Sometimes we bite of more than we can chew and still want more other times we are left disappointed with our dishes, if you know what I mean ;)
    Great piece, Em

    What a thoroughly brilliant and bizarre piece, Lucero! I loved it.

    "I am round like a circle, circling the table"

    ^^

    Excellent line.

    We certainly can indulge overly in all sorts of things in life, from dishes of wonderful food to 'dishes' of wonderful love and then we become addicted.

    Take care, Lucero,

    Ben
