Chinese Takeout
Poem (audio)
Tonight is 2 for Tuesday
At Foo Wong's.
Tonight is trying to satisfy the craving
of an old comfort.
Tonight is well drenched as I prefer.
It is soy sauce all over my chow mein.
Tonight is pretending you're giggling aside me
as I figure out the right tactic
to pick up the pieces
with chopsticks.
Tonight is awaiting my slip of fortune
telling me generic feel good nothings.
Tonight is braving
the night without you.
Yeah... tonight I'm taking out Chinese
but not taking your absence well.

This was lovely.
I like how you mixed the mundane of Chinese food with the depth of missing someone.
