Who am I kidding? It was the bread! (Writing Prompts)

by Everlasting   Nov 17, 2019


When I first laid a bite, I saw black and white;
a bunch of bright stars. What a delight!

It was the Ham. No, the tomato, right?
May be, the mayo?
Or the incredible sight along with the sprite?!

May be, it was the pepper?
The spice to indict
for igniting my voracious appetite?!

But perhaps, it was the salami I must cite,
Or the pepperoni that became my taste buds kryptonite?

May be, it was everything in that plate that night?
the whole sandwich that made feel happily contrite,
despite me being on a diet
where carbs should be a red light
to stop my every bite?

This was the prompt that inspired this write. You can find this kind of prompts in the main forums.

Prompt: write about the emotional experience of eating a REALLY good sandwich.
