    peppered love feast

    Eye's beginning to bulge 
    she turns ,

    'I've already told you',
    her crammed mouth,

    spitting out specks of self-adulation
    'I adore my food'

    Nutritious stages of decay 
    lay the table for her next meal 

     
    Feistily she swallows ,
    as I prepare her second dish
     
    'Miracles are just a combination of predetermined coincidences ?', I suggest.
    At this stage she is grunting
    which determines my choice .

    What  a coincidence
    that her violent allergic reaction 
    should start then.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
