This is Poetry

A Poem by Donald Meikle
"

Heaven slowly consumed

"
Two portabella caps Stems removed deeply and diced.
Frills down in olive oil and butter (with stem pieces)
Pan hot
Flip to frills up
Fill with italian dressing and cheddar cheese
Fry covered at simmer

Steam spinach
Steam parsnips in buttered water

Saute two filet mignon wrapped in bacon
divide equally on two plates

Sip wine and share the joy with friends

Yes, good food is poetic and poetry is like beautiful food, you taste every word. And Wow, the language is so rich and beautiful you certainly savour every word. I love the idea of sharing it with friends, both poetry and food.

This was an aesthetic concept and Kant insisted that aesthetic concepts are essentially subjective because rooted in personal feelings of pleasure yet this can be anyone's pleasure. Delicious poetry and image.
