Table for One


Serving their heart on a platter, they asked

       "Would you like salt with that?"

Serving their mind, shaken not stirred, they asked,

       "Would you like a bitter olive with that?"

Placing their body on the buffet, they gayly handed over the filet knives and assorted cutlery

and made room for a feast for one

as they stood at attention

prepared to serve

watching the entitled wanton gluttony, enjoyed at invitation

while praying for release.
