PANCAKE

PANCAKE

goddess-created, Oh
batter my heart
thou most
delectable of pancakes

drenched in syrup, she
of the honey fingers
has laboured
in her kitchen to
create you, true
paragon of foods

and there you
are rolled, stuffed
with incredible sweetness

sheer magic
        a masterpiece

each
   and every mouthful

a magic
carpet ride
               across deserts
across oceans

my heart suddenly open
to the dream
of
confection drawn
    as perfect circle

taste on my lips,
of infinite space
