The First Chef
Will you be the same,
a smile beneath the trees,
each time we separate,
the dollars and the dimes,
bars stacked like wheat,
we sit drinking wine,
now it's a morning shame,
not just my feet,
that walk this tired frame,
No I'm not fine,
come back to me,
don't ask me why,
what does it take,
a dawn novena,
to have you back again,
spiky as a porcupine,
your body a litany,
now is the time,
why can’t you remain,
where the sun rises even,
cars fill up their lanes,
and I hear you singing.
