You Are What You Eat
If you are what you eat, then today
she'll breakfast on lemons
soaked in vinegar
and fix her face into an acid snarl.
She'll take her coffee unsweetened -
curdled with yesterday's fresh cream
to supplement her sourness.
Throughout her day
she'll snack on cake
to maintain a smug expression.
And this evening, she'll dine alone -
gorging herself with blue cheese on dry
biscuits, bitter leaves and sour grapes
and wonder why I left her.
