06: Dinner

Soft cheese, a thickened cream of soft milk

ricotta is like making love, silk flavors,

a red sauce down throats, pink tomato, swollen to its skin

         - there is smoke outside

think of her dark toes for the first time, fetish - she is so gorgeous

the water is salted moon,

the night placid, boiling off clouds,

hops are a waterfall - the evening is charcoal, dry, curling around the moon

         - that burnt smell and love releases power

and her husband, stark-white, done in the kitchen,

perfectly firm inside, tender, salty

serving and

dress

Who does not marry the flavor, cook, like a good meal -

         homemade -

who orders in and eats out, kills the palate. No amount of salt will fix this.
