The Tasting

You saw the steam and thought it looked like art,

A simple bowl, a red and easy prize.

I watched you take a spoonful to your heart,

And watched the panic start within your eyes.

You didn\'t know the heat was built to last,

Or that the broth was never meant for you.

Now you\'re choking on the words you cast,

While I\'m just sitting, halfway through.
