All Comments on 'Romance versus Spoons'

This poem was mentioned in Wednesday's New Poems Reviews.

mister minor monster

it made me happy when

Jack in the box started serving

monster tacos - as I thought

monsters were an underused resource

and were probably better to eat

ecology wise; I try to act globally

but your work has given me

a newfound respect for them

I would hate, after enjoying your work so much

think that monsters are callously slain

simply as a beef alternative for my taco meat

when they could be writing brilliant poetry.

it is.

Right when you said

that you love me,

I stared in disgust

at a dirty crust

on the spoon you chose

to stir your tea.

excellent timing, BTW
