imagine this
onions
make us cry
what if
they make us cry
because as we cut them open
with their last dying words
they are sharing their life stories with us
and their lives
are so immersed in tragedy
that we cry for them
they speak to us
subliminally
so we never completely register
that we are being spoken to
we just cry
and the people who don't cry
are the truly heartless ones
that will not be affected
by the sad tales of others
if it stands
in the way
of getting a job done
Hard to cook when you empathise with your ingredients...
ReplyDeletedamn straight. i don't cook with onions. or i rarely do. if i do i cut them in the slap chop so they can't make me cry :P
