A Fish SupperA Poem by Duncan BrownFriday’s
feast is fast appearing In
bread and grace filled cups Unpursing
Pisces to pieces of coinage Cashiered
into ready palms A
battered silver darlin’ host Crown
jewel of golden’s wonder Precious
bare white fleshy bones Dressed
in the biting biting vinegar The
weeping stains on the wrapper As
hands are lightly washed A
taste arises from the table Nourishing
a waiting empty hunger Yea,
fish ‘n’ chips, this is food. © 2016 Duncan Brown |
