I relish being hungry for popslop grub...

rew4er2nail

 

(on second thought lemme join anorexic club

until rib cage protruding taut and visible

doubling as drum to drub

synchronized with heart that goes lub dub).

 

She painstakingly lovingly doth strew

haphazardly she threw

leftovers together,

this snowy December seventeenth

two thousand twenty

thoroughly cooked in microwave until...

poor excuse for my meal appeared

with consistency of shoe leather.

 

Think of the missus not afraid

to experiment buzzfeeding me

questionable resultant glop pantomimed 

for my guessing pleasure

never in bajillion years

as amateurish Marcel Marceau charade

performance courtesy the spouse,

 

an entrée she gave - yours truly

immediately sought to evade

me subsequently evincing

horrific puckered mealy mouth

as though I swallowed hand grenade

figurative exploding oral cavity

feeble futile gesticulation inveighed.

 

Thus, methinks himself wise

to don cooking apron

please do not ask why

trumpeting self as master chef boyardee

so move over wife and allow husband to try

his hand (using skill - let) me prepare Thai
and/or other Asian cuisine dish,

cuz when free to potschke

 

(To fuss or "mess around"

inefficiently and inexpertly), I haint shy

to blend (indiscriminately) ingredients

ofttimes yours truly barley able to ply

boiling water since significant other

does not give this garden variety

and generic, gimlet eyed

gourmandizing guilt free

Earth friendly gumption goaded guy.

 

Every so often yours truly

gets so hungry, he could

(not neigh sayimself) eat a horse

(yours truly jest kidding hoof course)

truth be told, I only eat one meal per day

all day from son up to son down, me a force

tubby reckoned with,

who if he gives way to vice

event chew wooly experiences remorse.

 

Hum glad to share mine reasonably rhyming hook

twenty six letters linkedin amidst

various combinations, formations, permutations,...

allows, enables, and provides a look

into the mindscape of Matthew Scott Harris

doth show himself with steely dangling

nonsense with sense and sensibility he forsook.
