Twice Fed
would you likesome sea salt
or maybe cinnamon pepper
they think the darkness comes from squid ink
but that's just charring on the meat
the gravy was hand made
from hay smoked bones
and thickened with blueberries
all the vegetables are home sourced
you seem hesitant
doesn't it smell divine
here let me cut you a slice
see the way the gravy takes the shimmer of the blood
lip smacking good
dont worry so many courses
try not to move
the wires are the only thing keeping you alive
and i have only used your foot and heart
so much meat to try
