Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.


Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

Cherry or Vanilla?

Chocolate.

Coffee or tea?

Chocolate.

Him or me?

Chocolate.

Valentines Day is looming. Chocolate hearts. Chocolate covered cherries. Boxes of chocolate.

Preferably Belgian. Made in Belgium. Served by Belgians in Belgium.

Bruxelles or Brugge will do. It should cost $600 round trip. I'll remember to bring some back for you.

Maybe.

That's if you serve me some cocoa, hot, with a dash of cayenne.

What?

No chocolate?

You think I should have a banana vanilla shake instead? Do I look a vanilla monkey to you? And now you think a Hersheys kiss will do?

Andre! Norma Jean!

...and that's how the fight started.
