Epigrams For Epicures

What was it you said to me, 

with buttered words thick like southern cooking, 

on a Saturday when clouds were floating 

catamarans on a blue sky-sea? 

 

You spoke with vigor and voracity 

compelling enough to convince me well, 

sentences long like snake contrails 

etched by an erudite witty. 

 

And I\'ll admit with naivety

my innocence of everything, 

that I am a locavore of home-grown ignorance, 

subsisting solely on what I\'m given.

 

But the stories which you enliven

are the finest meals I\'ve had,

every letter spoken, words!

Epigrams for epicures!
