I predict heartbreak
I predict this is how it will all end
Harvest
Emptying the lands
Raping the grounds

I promise Pinot Noir
What is this I'm speaking of
Emptying the land
Pillaging backgrounds
 Harvest
Fleece cultivates my soul

Listen to poem:

and love is food
come bring your appetite
my lips ready for a feast
a nibble here and there

pinot noir or chardonnay
moist upon my tongue
please don't tease
or wake the tiger

it's a basic jungle rule
yes, food is love
and love is food
under moonlit skies

Start over 
This breath is new
Even for the despicable
Breathe

Start over
This cup of coffee is new
Like never before
Drink

Reborn again
This body is dry again
The wine in new skin 
As Christ promised 

Reborn again
Temptations made new
Baptized by Pinot Noir 
Humbled

If only I would believe 
I come out the womb again
And again

If only I could believe 
In faith in starting over
One more time

Do I have a choice?
Faith does its work
Till eternity ends...

Petite-o-tat-oes, baked 
of a fiery oven
Crispy skin
as spud's innards
fluff into a hot
morsel of delight
Butter-drowned 
sour cream, spices                         

Romaine lettuce wedge
french bread-fresh-baked
creamy brie, Pinot Noir
tantalized taste-buds
Like a hot fudge sauce
effused 
onto stone-cold
tutti-frutti
sensate's tongue tip

Salivation!
timer 
hums
readiness - 
Delectable 
Consumption
of crispy, savory
Petite-o-tat-oes

To blue flames 
set-ablaze  
dessert of 
"Cherries Jubilee"...
