Outlier

You took the plate, handed it to the next person

took it back before they touched it.

The plate had a piece of brown steak, some mashed potato with herbs,

some green peas.

You loved to cook, you bragged about it.

You give that plate to the person beside you.

I take it, cut the steak open with a knife.

White glue oozes out onto the knife.

The steak was blood red inside,

A worm wiggled out, half cut.

I looked at the knife, saw your smirk on the blade.
