Veggie Love
Darling broccoli
I left you stranded
on one side of my plate
for so long
Truth is
I was
saving you
till last--
all that green heaven
so good for me
waiting patiently
You smiled
back so sweetly
and then I stabbed you
with my fork
bit your head off
then chewed you into pulp
and later
I turned you
into a piece of shit
How could I do that
to something I love
What sort of person
am I?

Very amusing, and also strangely downbeat. An odd combination. I'm not qute sure how to feel about this piece. Should I have laughed (as I did) or should I comprehend some deeper meaning (as I think I have, but cannot be sure). Ahhhh, the dilemmas good poetry proposes...

hahaha i find it hilariuos for some reason
is it supposed to be seriuos poem, full of odd metaphors and deep meanings? :)
but any kind of reader's reaction - is already and achievement of a writer, especially poet

That's a very interesting idea, Judas - which has set me thinking - thanks for your kind words.

If you can murder your dinner and laugh about it then things must be OK I guess. Thanks for that, Priya.
