Chili Challenge

Chili Challenge

He did the chili challenge

at the local diner.

Mouth full of food

eating as fast as he could.

Nearly choked himself

a few times.

Hot and sweaty face

had the shakes

and nearly passed out

another time.

Oh my god!

Why do people do these

daft food challenges?

I must admit.

I never watched

I just could not.

ps thanks Richard for the help.

Hey, Dawn! : )
What a cute little Free Verse piece you've treated us to about how the more offbeat and adventurous among us will do anything for a trophy or a thrill, even stuffing their faces with any and everything imaginable!
The one appealing part about this little pleaser of yours, besides the great writing and imagery dancing all through your words, is that I love a good hot bowl of Tex-Mex chili!
NOT, of course, to the degree your gobbling competitor did … LOL!

Really good stuff, Dawn!
I love it, and thanks for the honorable mention … big hugs, Lady-Poet! ⁓ Richard : D


psst!
"and nearly 'passed' out" : )

Haha, reminds me of that episode on Modern Family, when Cam takes on a similar food challenge at a Columbian restaurant to show Gloria how appreciative he is of her culture.

Very clever use of lines in your verses. This is indeed well etched out, Dawn.

Best,
M.

Not among my favorite competitions; rather disgusting to watch.
Intriguing piece, Dawn.

[Onlyme]
