Leftovers
I've always loved leftovers.
Is that why I love you,
leftover from all the women
who had a piece of you?
You loved dishing it out,
watching them take it, savoring it,
always ready with the serving spoon,
'Would you like more'?
And now, so many years,
so many meals later,
you rest in your refrigerated dish,
hoping you have the flavor of yesterday,
wishing I would take you and warm you up,
close my eyes and lick my lips.
