Rich and Hearty

Miles Varana

When I’m especially hungry, I like to imagine the state
of the soup before the opener’s teeth break its seal.
Potatoes and carrots suspended in a vacuum,
asteroids colliding with already-split peas,
carboniferous protozoan beef blobs rising amphibiously
from the sauce, my own past-participle
embryonic self revolving slowly head first, fed by it all,
voices in the dark, lost somewhere, undone somehow.
What next? Oh yes— the microwave.
