Appetite, may you find your end of night
between two English muffins,
painted with the bravest strawberry jam.
Laundry, I dare you
to wrinkle
in mountainous folds to make your
hilly peaks of butter cream.
May this lonely enthusiasm
inspire a banquet triage;
a mission to exhume
skeletons from their shelves.
Set the table,
every chair will be taken.
