~God Loves Artichokes~
God loves artichokes. She
peels each leaf, dips
it into the salty sauce of
tears, scrapes the good
stuff off on her
bottom teeth and tosses
the leaf into the
compost.
God likes the hearts
best, and usually draws out
the leaf-eating,
reveling in the slow, delicious
unfolding of the heart.
God doesn't mind
the spiny stuff just before
the heart. She carefully
picks it away, not wanting to
damage the heart, which she
admires, then
eats whole.
Sometimes, unpredictable as God is,
and lacking manners completely,
God will take
her two thumbs, plunge them directly
into the center, rip
the artichoke in half, and greedily
eat the heart, spines and
all, in a couple
messy gobbles.
