After Prévert

[PrinceMyshkin]

A truly hungry man
can make a meal
from the scent
wafting out the door
of a café, can discern
the exact ingredients
of a plate of French toast,
sausages and hash-browns
and whether the cook
quarrelled with his wife that morning.

[cafolini]

I suppose that if the cook quarrelled with his wife, the hungry man better run away from acquiring a bad habit in useless insistance. LOL

[qimissung]

That indeed would be an exquisite palate.
