"And wondering if they forgot their pills"


Poem Artwork

Meeting Aurora at Spiro's for Dinner

a sonnet

As the smoking flesh of sacrificed beasts
Brings bloodlust satiety to the feasts
Of the overwrought overweight and fraught
Lamenters of their frustrations and ills
I wait head-down invisible as taught

As angry obesities pay their bills
Complaining of chicken-fried steaks they bought
And wondering if they forgot their pills
I wait to see someone who waits for me
While wondering what we are waiting for

And if they have found their satiety
Why do these people keep looking for more?
Their eyes are hungry wily and wary

Satiety must be temporary

+Steven Curtis Lance

Indeed you are an observer of human nature and a philosopher and poet on top of it all, Stevie. Thank you. Be well, my friend. Love and best wishes,

Regis
