Love Poem: Triglycerides

Written by: Doris Culverhouse

Triglycerides

Triglycerides from genetics
Triglycerides from steaks
Triglycerides in the blood

Food in my hand
Food on my lips
Food in the stomach

A smile on my face
Lying in the casket
Gravy on my chin.

Triglycerides from genetics
Triglycerides from steaks and butter potatoes.
Triglycerides in the blood
Triglycerides in the food.

Food in my hand 
Food in my mouth
Food in the stomach
Smile on the face
Lying in the casket.
