eat

[darkeyedtravler]

i wish, for one day, i could just eat.
eat
eat and eat
eat all the food i want
and drink all the wine i want
and eat medium-rare steaks
without thinking about the cow
and salt and vinegar chips
without thinking about cholesterol
and cadbury chocolate and spaghetti and feta cheese
without thinking about my thighs.
eat as if i was an abyss
or a black hole
that could swallow worlds and yet not be full.
eat until sauces run down my chin
and stain my lips
eat until i have tasted every taste there is to taste
the hot spices of India
the tangy-sweet flavors of China
the savory, salty scent of soy sauce
the cheesy, lardy goodness of a fast food cheeseburger
slowly, maliciously creeping through my veins
like a vast, slothful snake
and my precious A-1
sauce of all sauces
spilling like a tidal wave of delicious
all over everything.
