I love the way you cook up
poems out of nothing

like feasts imagined out of
yesterday’s dinner
and Grandma’s lime pickle.

If a poem could be stuffed into a sandwich,
I’d roll it up
and pat it into a pattie
hide it among the greens
under the cheese and peppers,
and watch it munch you into ecstasy.
