This weekend, the hubby barbecued steaks for dinner. Our son took this photo which turned out pretty nifty, moi thought:
In turn, it inspired a poem (initially titled "Fearless Dad" before I edited it to be titled by its initial first line). I'm not entirely comfortable with this result below, but since these "Diary Poems" are possibly just drafts, I'll post it anyway. To Blog is ... to begin.
FIRE IS NOTHING
That which caused
an eagle to eat
a Titan's liver
everyday to manifest
a God's edict for
"eternal torment"--
That which decimates
mountains with
the slightest breeze--
That Fire is nothing
fearful
but fuel
to be controlled
when it comes
to your Family--
That rib's eyeyou present
floating amidst
the salsa of
tomatoes, coriander
garlic, salt and
the love that fires
up our made Life
