Menu

by Marie Delgado Travis

You want me to reach
deep inside and
pull out "stuff"
for your consumption,
Without revealing
anything of your own.

To pour my guts out,
entertainingly,
between your
tomato basil soup
and cappucino.

Stand before you
dishing out portions
of my soul,
while you say,
"Pass the salt" and
"Check please"
Applaud lightly
and walk out,
just as I get to
the part where
I really hurt.
