Blog #6: A Heartfelt Poem to The Love of My Life

One blog post for each day in Feb?

By the end of this I may be dead.

I set forth a goal

Now my schedule’s quite full

But one blog post a day’s what I said

So now here I am writing this post

And the thing I am thinking ‘bout most

Is why I would say

One blog post every day

When I barely have time to make toast

Speaking of toast, I want food

And not to be totally crude

But this food is my life

I would make it my wife

To not eat it all would be rude

Now… my stomach does not say the same

It’s not used to this country’s spice game

So you know what I mean

Yeah I guess you could glean

That my insides are not very tame

But I will not stop eating dal

In fact, I won’t stop eating at all

Give me curry and naan

The biryani is gone?!

But really, thank God for thal(i)

The food here is simply the best

And although it puts me to the test

I love it all so

I know when I go

It won’t be the same in the West

Getting through that will be tough

Withdrawals from the food will be rough

And this is why

In this time I try

To eat ALL the food I can stuff
