all you can eat buffet

Anthony Liccione

Issue 18 * Spring 2006

half n half, whole
wheat bread whale
of a time, split
in two buttermilk
biscuits, staring
down my throat
no matter, where
I am is is am I
happy to eat, what
others leave behind
in a napkin, folded
to take home to
mother nature, famish
needing nurture because
a poor shoe, holes
is not a way to walk
around in life, children
laugh no matter what
