Best Foodstuff Poems

^she_

^she_  had a love/hate relationship with food
she only fed with her eyes,
i was a sparkless firecracker 
and spoke English like i hated it.

not the least bit compatible
in any department 
at any hour on any menu
she wouldn't even drink the water.

I would slip through the...

My Bothers and Sisters
(Street Kids)

We grow up in public landfills, train stations, 
under the bridges of towns,
victims of all kinds of abuse, but we still had rights…
because of conflicts with our relatives, 
we did not want to return to families.

The public is unfair towards us;
they...

Morning drizzle
Skyline looks teary;
Jogging feet struggle

~~~~~~~~~


New penthouse suite
By midtown place;
Blessings of peace

~~~~~~~~~


Time moves swiftly
Flying away;
Seize interlude

~~~~~~~~~


Small talk empties
Chit-chat delays;
Time oozes fast

~~~~~~~~~


Two black birds
Morning choral;
Balcony duet

~~~~~~~~~


Tropical heatwave
Humid sticky sweat;
Air-con relief

~~~~~~~~~


Mall sales boomerangs
Petty touting;
Urgent campaign

~~~~~~~~~~


Toy dog runs barking
Pink hair dye;
Same as lady master

~~~~~~~~~~


Childcare kids
Sing-song repetition;
Old nursery rhymes

Frogs’ legs 
French cuisine fad
Amphibians hopping mad

 Shish kebabs 
Cubed lamb chislic
Served on toothpick

 Pizzas 
Flatbread Italian feast
Waist measurement increased

 Bird’s nest soup 
Rare Chinese foodstuff
Swiftlets sleeping rough

 Mexican wraps 
Spicy chicken fajitas
Hot as senoritas

 Seafood paella 
Shrimp, lobster, cuttlefish
Saporous Valencian dish

 Maple syrup 
Canadians...

A contest of word lists - the subject of winter
Make up a good poem - then send to the printer
But nothing says nothing 'bout giving a twist
By splitting and sageing - might get a slapped wrist

Digging for riches but finding a fossil
Verbosely scream curses and...

There one very peculiar foodstuff
that puts a sour crook in my mouth
It’s that stringy don’t-give-me-any-of,
two thumbs down for the sauerkraut
Just the awful smell of it makes me sick,
has me running out of the house so quick
When my nose whiff this jar of pain opening,
that chef...

‘Eak - corncrush jam again for tea,’ he said,
And pulled a face of utter dread.
‘You know I’d rather have a dozen things.
‘No other teatime foodstuff brings
‘Me down - and I don’t even want a gram
‘Of yucky, nasty corncrush jam.’

Eak - corncrush jam - Jack Marcus...

Cast Away And Close

Cast away on an island surrounded by seas far apart from
            my soul mate and lover I am now viciously dependent alone

Sunday makes time
For certain bliss;
Jazz stirs new rhymes,
Plain that and this.


Market trip calls
To stock up food;
Brisk walk finds stalls,
Buy sundry goods.


Fresh meat and fish,
Shrimps and sea catch;
Thoughts of fine dish,
A gourmet match.


I grab foodstuff,
Speed home quickly;
The load feels tough,
My steps weary.


The humid heat
And windless road
Conspire...

Certified vegan;
Non-GMO Project Verified;
Free of dairy, lactose, soy, and gluten.
The consistency of vanilla
creamy and luxurious,
without a speck of iciness,
yet not overly heavy.

The flavor rich
with notable burst of sweet vanilla.

Said comestible insanely versatile
and will surely be a go to dairy-free ice cream.

Sold at LIDL, and other...

Time Is Never Enough


Sunset must be time
chores may surcease
For the day's grime
to clean or release.

Industry has a knack
to outdo surcease
Workers back to back
daily bask in grease.

Time is not enough!

He lives in the hole and hidden places ,
Devouring foodstuff and books in cases ,
He tries to escape the cat
But falls into trap on mat ,
Which makes the old rat to see dead faces .

Arise o! Kitchen pot
My stomach calls to bay.
To serve my stomach right
With appetizing gaze I pray.
The labour of my market-thing
Shall never be invaded
With poisonous outing.
One kitchen bound with foodstuff.
I prepare to massacre.

Arise o! Cooking burner.
Fight thee against food villains.
My vessels should thy saliver nourish.
My body...
