The Recipe


Firstly we were:

tenderised by trauma
pulverised with pain
reduced by rejection
marinated in melancholy

Then we were:

filleted by fear
sliced with solitude
diced in desperation
shredded by shame.

Next we were:

fried with fury
boiled by blame
simmered with scorn
cooked in chaos.

Finally we are:

served with suffering
garnished with grief
seasoned by sadness
eaten by emptiness.
