Anthropomorphic Relapse
This way for Petunia
I feel certain to go
To go back
Back into the little restaurant and the little fire
I think I might have forgot you
I got undressed for that night and then I forgot the feeling
I forgot what it was like to be human
All that hating and biting
All that wanting of this thing or that thing
Wanting as food
I wanted food
I wanted to eat the meat raw and the vegetables cold
I wanted to dip the mushrooms in sauce
Today, when I got your note I thought it said
you should eat me with your fingers
I wanted to eat you
I wanted to dust your legs in cornmeal
I wanted to fry you in oil
Heh. That could be. Or dandelion.
I don’t know if petunias are edible, strictly speaking, except for the cartoon kind.

I like the pig. Stick with Petunia.

Hey D.
i really enjoyed this one. caught myself reciting the last two lines.
G, thanks. What news from the land of maggots?
Edible Nasturtium instead of Petunia?
Unless you mean the pig? Which would be kinda neat.
