And you are like this
Fine china
Gold rimmed edges
The decadent roses
Turned to face away
From you, at dinner
And the clink of the silver
Glinting gleaming
Mirroring the glutton-
y, as meat slips down
Your throat
The chamber of my throat
So polished and prepped
Not the grace of dinner
But the cook who burned
Her hands making it
Only if you allow
Will meat slip down
My black hole
And back out
Until you are full
Sated
And I must
Once again
Do the dishes
