Sourpuss
I wish I were smooth and silky,
easy to digest and good for you,
but I'm not.
Born squalling and cross-eyed -
literally and figuratively -
I'm tart, vinegary,
prone to upsetting the digestion,
causing heartburn.
Sharp-tongued, impatient, abrasive,
I don't slide easily down the gullet;
I burn the whole way down,
tossing matches on gasoline
instead of oil on troubled water.
Yes, I'll spice up your life,
but the day always comes
when my dark and sooty blood
proves too acidic
for the most intrepid diner.
I'm a small-dose additive,
which is why, no doubt,
I'm alone.

I love the simplicity of the subject, shapes, and composition in this still life. Everyone knows that oil and vinegar don't mix - yet we keep trying and with often delectable results, whether in our cuisine or in our relationships. There's a lesson in this piece and the poem that accompanies it. Female Artists, L, F, Fb
