raw happiness

god damn,
I love sushi.
every roll has layers of delicious
salmon, tuna, yellowtail, sushi never fails
raw happiness prevails when a piece enters my mouth and melts in a moment of zen
sushi is the cure to distress,
it is blessed by samurai ninjas in heaven
a perfect fit
god damn, I am fiending for a hit of that seaweed covered, mouth-watering goodness right about now,
right about every moment of every day
I go out of my way to maintain a stable sushi intake
miso happy when the plate arrives, the waitress smiles and sets it in front of my lustful eyes
chopsticks in hand, I devise a plan:
Alaska followed by rainbow followed by ginger drenched in soy
pure
joy
next up spicy tuna and spicy salmon,
a dip in soy sauce, followed by yellowtail and scallion
then wasabi loaded, sashimi re-folded
I'm getting full, can my stomach hold it?
Yes it can!
with honor at stake, I empty my plate and take a break.

god damn,
that was good.

the perfect meal,
every roll has a unique feel
in the hierarchy of food, sushi sits on top
I can't stop
addicted
sushi leaves my personal finances conflicted
like a sumo wrestler on a diet, I need more
I need an upgrade from a sushi boat to a sushi skyscraper,
in reality and on paper, sushi is supreme
in my stomach, a dream come true
god dammit it sushi, I'm just gonna come out and say it
I love you.

smile

the flood is coming
hands together, pray
the world will close
and it will take you
and me too
to another place, dark
and quiet
so pray
it will happen anyway but pray
the flood will come
today
or tomorrow
and you will be dead
and i will be too
you, with a smile
and i too, with a smile
the flood will come
and we will be two smiling fools,
under the waves.
