I, Sausage
...desire to ask
and not to know
now nor
how,
the answer itself
inconsequential, as I
...in this mass
of misinformation
draped by butcher's
apron...
...where many cooks
wipe their hands
in lieu of soiling up
the towels;
I, Sausage
...would close my sense
and experience
if I could
avoid,
the mess that I
myself, am making
...with these ingredients
at once, suspect and yet,
described as heaven
sent...
...held across
the flames in a
pan-de-
monium
...the carnage said to be pleasing
to the gods, in a splitting-image
...I, Sausage.
