Food

"Hunger makes you restless.
You dream about food
- not just any food, but perfect food,
the best food,
magical meals, famous meals, awe-inspiring,
the one piece of meat, the exact taste of buttery corn,
tomatoes so ripe they split and sweeten the air,
beans so sweet they snap between the teeth,
gravy like mothers milk singing to your bloodstream."
