Food for the Hungry
Salty crisp potato chips tantalize my tongue
because Ruffles have ridges
but mostly Ruffles have flavor
and they fill my belly
already stuffed and bloated
My stomach is fat
My soul is lean
Cold creamy Cherry Garcia swirls my taste buds
slides down my throat
sweet cherries and chunks of chocolate
satisfy my stomach
glutted from a steak and potato dinner
My stomach is swollen
My soul is barren
Loudly-flavored lemon Luna Bar
the perfect afternoon snack
devoured in moments
the memory faintly lingers
on my lips
My stomach is gorged
My soul is gaunt
My spirit longs for food
that gladdens the heart
invigorates the soul
Woman can’t thrive
on bread alone
on Ruffles alone
on Cherry Garcia alone
on lemon Luna alone
This was so good!
