 Round colored balls of crystal glass, 

oval shaped mugs of bone china, 
engraved impressions of fish on thermos flask, 
tiny cutglass bowls for consuming vodka, 
heat resistant specimens of pressure cooker, 
heavy safety valves curbing escape of steam, 
circular rubber rings sewn with fire proof material, 
frozen refrigerators cooling a factory of food, 
hi-tech microwave boilers nursing unburnt meals, 
hollow iron drums storing yearly food grain, 
vibrating grinders for softening curd, 
tetra burner cooking range warming milk, 
large butcher knives for slicing jackfruit, 
sleek bottle openers for releasing tin caps, 
penta cavitied toasters for roasting bread, 
large alloyed vessels for baking egg, 
tri cylinder apparatus for filtering ground water, 
slimy water bowls for wiping utensils, 
corrugated iron sticks for grilled barbecue, 
well spun coarse cloth for rubbing hands and stain, 
shady compartments of exhaust vents, 
obliterating traces of harsh light, 
tin metal dishwasher scraping stubborn dirt, 
cane baskets holding a bunch of spoon and fork, 
small cuplets filled with
chilli, pepper, salt, coriander seed. etc, 
multifold light bulbs fastened to ceiling, 
with dedicated housewives preparing mouth watering dishes, 
and a pitcher of beer on the granite slab, 
is a glimpse of the 20th century modern kitchen.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
