Pleasure and Pain

I once ate a hot enchilada
to warnings I said yada yada 
	they had rightly said
	eat the mild instead
Next time I’ll order a tostada

Mexican food - yummy! There are many restaurants and cafes and taco/tamale stands in the area I live. Terrific stuff. :) Linda

There is pleasure in the bite of that food. But it is not for everyone. Well said, Linda.
