I want to devour this poem
Chewing it’s sticky stanza
Sickly sweet syntax that sticks to my teeth

I want the cinnamon bun filled
Syllables, synonyms and symbols

The cataclysm of rhythmic crunching
Of candied cadence exploding
In my head

I want the taste of
Gently baked mangoes
Marinated with metaphors

Slow cooked to perfection by
A patisserie chef
Cleverly disguised as a poet.
