T’day Food Porn

~ Eat ‘til you stuff your belly pouch — then fall asleep on the livin’ room couch ~

Got the turkey on the table
we’ll eat as much as we’re able
and sautéed green beans — man oh man
stuffing is a really big hit
sweet corn – can’t get enough of it
mashed taters made the dinner plan
we’ll wrap it up with punkin’ pie
rich whipped cream piled high as the sky
food porn with good wine — such a fan!

Regal Rag Man

~ Magical memory of a naive 6-year-old small-town boy from 1952 ~


Original DDE™ surreal art: “Regal Rag Man” by: rob kistner © 11/28/24

 
Rags-ole-iron, he called out loudly
rags-ole-iron, his cart rolled our road
collecting scraps of post World War II
gathered in a this’n’that recycled load

he had a slow n’steady way about him
from where he came — I never knew
he always seemed quite magical to me
like some enchantment had come true

he was such a mystery to this young boy
tattered mad-hatted wizard from the past
I’d hear his call echo between the houses
I’d rush wonder-filled to watch him pass

his wheels rumbled quietly on the pavement
his piled bounty clicked n’clacked n’clattered
he came out of a dream then into a memory
somehow I felt his regal purpose mattered

time-to-time he still passes in that memory
rumbling down that misty street of long ago
where he came from and to where he went
truly a magical mystery I care never t’know
