Vasana Bar & Grill

[Guest guest]

A plate of scraped grilled

Artichoke petals piled high

on the table before us,

the memory of our sadhana,

now washed down with cool

Chenin Blanc Amrita,

the full-fruit prasad of

Love's effortless submission,

and is it any wonder

Shiva springs for the tab!

 

You say:

"This will work!"

 

The Waitress,

Kali Ma,

indulgently agrees.

 

When we finally leave

This restaurant, nobody

will even notice –

 

all eyes will be glued

on the flaming rotisserie spit,

skewered identities roasting alive,

aromas of that burning lingering

long into night.

 

 

 

 

LoveAlways,
