Today

Let's compensate
sadness and frustration
with food

Let's have them melt
in a blue cheese tagliatelle

Let's have a drink
to wash away
the annoyance
the grievance

A glass of red wine 

In small sips
to remind us 

there is no need to hurry 

We are all moving 

towards the same end, anyway

Let's have dessert! 

A big slice of lemon pie

Let's remind ourselves

the bitter can highlight the sweet

Let's have the pie 

Big chunks of it, big bites

Lots of merengue on top 
will remind us
we should always
taste more of the sweet

Let's not give a fuck about
dieting, restrictions,
judgement, self control 

Let's indulge ourselves

Let's indulge

Let's have a cup of coffee 

Dark and strong,
No cream, no milk 

Let's wake up 

And never
fall asleep again

Let's skip the damn bill

And run away
from the restaurant 

Laughing 

Forever

Or just 

Today
