Filler Food

Filler Food

A Poem by Jordan Smith

Food, it is
the filler to
a soul.
A soul that
is no longer
together.
It weeps for
admiration and
yearns for love.
Food is the thing
that fills it whole
and gives it what
it needs, unlike
an abandoned sould
who's lost forever.

Food... Wonderful food.:) For me, as someone who loves to cook/bake, it is the preparation, the time spent creating edible art that fills pieces of my soul, that brings about a sense of peace and internal order. Then the pleasure of that first bite, the rolling of eyes, the contented moan, when it seems as if every nerve ending within ones body twirls with joy. Food is so therapeutic... Especially food served with love. Nothing quite like that apple pie your grandmother makes just for you, something so exceedingly special whisked about the ingredients in which only you can taste. Yes... You are completely right, Jordan.:) Food can so be a filler.

Food is seen as a comfort for most, especially me! I love the idea that it is food that completes us, my favourite part being
'food it the thing
that fills it whole
and gives it what
it needs,'

Sometimes as humans we think the only thing that can truly comfort us are the things that arent human and alive. I love the message to this piece of work. Very nice!

Thank You :) I appreciate it
A necessity in life and yet it may fill the body but what of the soul...I guess it becomes a comfort for a soul that doesn't seem whole...or feel whole...whatever whole is...bottom line feed the soul not the body perhaps :)
