Poems
Apr 2018
The taste of black.
The licorice jelly beans nobody ever eats
(besides me).
The dark roast coffee
My dad always drinks.
The deep-fried mushrooms
We get at the sports bar every Sunday.
The bittersweet taste of summer memories
With each kiss of the berries.
The rich taste
Of dark chocolate on a rainy day.
The **** bite
Of Pinot Noir on a date night.
The taste of regret
That comes from eating plums in your white sundress.
It’s the beans
From my dad’s famous deer chili.
The sleepiness—or the alertness—
That comes from drinking that cup of plain tea.
That nice burn that comes
When you add to much pepper.
Black is my favourite colour
And this is what it tastes like.
