Soupris is French for "sighs". "All things al dente (or to the tooth)" means let all the resistance fly away too.
Poetry soupris Soupris being French for sighs And we all breathe them At different times in our lives We breathe them in relief And maybe in our sleep Exhaled after we've railed Against the nightly thief Poetry soupris Potato soupris served cold Alphabet soupris Spelled out in the bowl Sighs of relief Sighs that matter Sighs of release In thoughts that scatter (Carole Landis "The sigh heard round the world" Only Twenty-nine When we lost "your baby" girl) Sorrowed soupris During suffering endured Godly suffering Soupris when your cured Soupris relenting Served during your sentence The sighs, the soupris As we seethe through repentance Now that the war is over And you have traveled home Awaiting and waiting To breathe out this soupris poem Let the soupris fly away And all things al dente (to the tooth) If this were the Seventies I’d hope your needle finds its groove
