Life's placemats.

Life's placemats.

A Poem by andrew mitchell
"

abstract, surreal thoughts on life as a dinner setting somewhat structured, organised, ready for....life

"
Life's placemats.
Places everyone!
The spoon distant upfront
well placed for afters;
the scoop for the day
in waiting!
The knife, single
on hand ready
to spread
the love buttered.
The turning of the fork
suggested a new leaf,
new beginnings,
started nervously.
While the knife and fork
worked in tandem separately 
only to be paired
in their finishing satisfied.
The glass on its side, 
 lonely cried out......
on the rude awakening
the bottle was empty.
On life's placemats!!!!
