THE TRUE TEST or OUR SECOND DATE

THE TRUE TEST or OUR SECOND DATE

A Poem by Glen Fitch

   

    We'll enter an arena of delight
        to satisfy a primal need.
    But while excited,
        yet, my love,
            I dread tonight.
    We'll meet
        each other's sense
            of taste and style.
    Our histories
        and our future
            will unfold in every gesture.
    Start this--you or I?
    The old traditions
        now no longer hold.
    We all can be a Master
        or can try.
    Trust intuition?
    Risk repas critique?
        By now we're well past
            going by the book.
        Will knowledge, judgment
        or technique decide?
        Or just a pinch
        or twist or look?
    Our first adventure.
    Well, it's me or you.
        We'll see now.
    Who's the chef,
    who's the sous?

A word is a wager in thought. Every one I pick is a bet that it will mean to you what it means to me. That is at least today, relevant to my race, class, gender and community. The fine print in my poe.. more..
