famine at the feast
it was one of those showy glittering galas
the kind only the comfortably numb can afford
candlelight and roses
groaning boards weighted down
with only the freshest and rarest of delicacies
rivers of wine
(or whatever poison one preferred)
and everywhere the pungent scent
of expensive dead animal
blackening over a great fire on the hearth
a fish out of water as usual
there only through family sufferance
i wandered the room wineglass in hand
gazing at tables that boasted
of the depth of the pocketbook of the host
succulent fruit scattered among satiny cheeses
oysters and mussels ceviche prosciutto
and a thousand other things all screamed
eat me!
but i couldn't
every morsel inflamed memories of other nights
spent in the unvarnished company of one
my body was on fire
hungry not for food but for the raw and salty flavor
of you
