The Taste Of You

 

You think there is something in you that is tasteless

and are looking of ways to throw it away. Don’t.

Make a good meal of yourself.

Gather that sour left over piecemeal part of you,

and toss yourself in the scraps of a new appetite.

Prepare yourself in a loving cup

and pour upon this unwanted dish spice and savor.

 

Go wild in this simmering kitchen of your experience.

Forage for herbs and delicacies

to enrich the bowl of your soul, and blend a repast there.

Seek out the stale presence of half consumed regrets,

and place them on the heat of your love.

Mull and commingle and compound you

on the palate of awareness,

and eat of you with a divine hunger and acceptance.

 

You are the perfect dish, and you have been cooked most

carefully by the chef of your heart, who oversees all such

preparations in timely anticipation of your zest to devour,

all of this life enriching fare, and feast of you.

Discard no particle or piece, and throw no portion of you

away, for you in truth, you cannot cook this way, and can

never dine this way on your savorings and sweetenings.

 

Waste not, and want not your leavings, but compose the

makings of you into such a fine banquet of succulence

that all who come to your table are nourished by you.

In the festive flavor and offerings of you.

 

 

love
