Premium Member Manhattan madness
TS Eliot said, “Paris is a strong stimulant.” It is - but it has nothing on Manhattan. If Paris is a Café Crème espresso at a café-en-terrasse under the stars. Manhattan is a ‘Black Tie Bawls’ cocktail at The Crown bar (the skyline!). We were going to relax - in Manhattan, instead, keep those seat belts fastened. Lisa said, one night,...

Dining with Death
"Forever" seemed like a long time The taste buds had worn off the desire to eat from the same plate My eyes feasted on other froral ceramic plates not of my cabinet I ate from one plate to the next interchangeably How fast the vows had forgoten the path to my heart My "plate" just...

Premium Member Dining Next To King Cat
King Cat sat at the head of the table without a care. His corpulent body oozing out of his super big chair. His girth slipped onto the edge of my chair like a wing. His fur was prickly, but I dared not say a thing. He was all powerful at this table, the king, after all. Throwing around his weight,...

I sit at my family’s empty table Life’s feast is almost gravely gone I am the final guest left in this familial fable All within my bloodline have somehow succumbed I recall the time of the sweet, sour, bitter and salty with zeal Each gathering shared with love for each other at every meal November 13, 2022 Bitesize Poem Number 55 Sponsored by:...

Why Your Dining Table Is Not Mine
As you know, I am fasting today And fasting was never a lighter chore for me Craving sugars, coffee mugs, all those, all of these Serenity prayer, and I kept myself ongoing. Every fever has a hype, this one too. I just thought that the thermometer was a gift a glassed space with mercury...

Marionette Soup
Marionette soup comes in a midnight bowl Filled to the brim with mushroom tumbling Under the golden moon dolls cut their strings Nutcrackers on crash diets sink saltines Welcomed to float inside awhile But not included in the price of dining Russian dolls introduced to soup dive in One after another dropped into darkness Each one becomes smaller and smaller Within themselves only...

Dining On Ashes I
I dine on your ashes I choke on your hypocrisy I sit n tolerate This mockery This travesty of me I feel my skin crawl with… The worms of this… My disease I know how you feel You brought me to my knees With your lies and deceit, I cry Why are you my bane My apathy and distance I...

Premium Member Everybody Needs a Fine Dining Experience
Shadows amid the waves bird-eye targets, besties gather for a fine dining experience; aqua splits to pierce of bill. Fueling up the old pouch, a winging pelican riding sea breeze to sustenance; all hook-billed and needing no bait. Just a hop, skip-skim across to side-dish; let’s have a herring and mullet casserole! Throat-sack wiggles, jiggles, down the hatch, then it’s back to the nest for cocktails and...
