The frequency of people

I was thinking about prawns a lot yesterday

a spontaneous special offer bag of frozen prawns

that you shrug into your basket then discover in the middle shelf

of your freezer two months later and yesterday out on a walk

I could taste certain foods as if I was eating them for the first time

the blossom and the bluebells smelt so beautiful

and I was happy with no headphones on and could taste

a prawn and salad sandwich my mum and I

were eating together on a Saturday lunchtime,

her telling me my dad doesn't like prawns

and there were times she'd practically whisper 'Let's

have something that's just for me and you'

and as I walked by the river I tasted the crusty bread and mayonnaise

and then my first ever beer and then the first time

I ever had camenbert as a starter at a wedding.
