A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO DIE (An Original Poetry ➕ Analysis & Literary Appreciations)
Image pixabay
The steaming aroma gently travelling,
the dancing rhythm of the pot,
and the symphonic beating of spoons against knives
Mesmerizing the mind with sweet fragrance,
the joy of gnashing the teeth against crunching crumbs,
is like sailing on the clouds
the delicacy before you,
is like a beautiful battle, bloodless with casualties.
I'm living a life of lifelessness,
a lifelessness called living by lifeless addicts,
the bread and it's slimy paste,
is a gateway to paradise,
but a step closer to a protruding coffin,
the happiness of destroying muffins,
is better than pinky bladders,
we all die a death choked on goodness,
a gauzed kidney an a punctured bladder,
but the pasta place is a beautiful place to die.
Like a pretty pie immersed in cyanide,
The saccharined life is bitter as a gall,
the pan is singing a song of junk
messed up like a trashed custard,
in the sweet demise of good food,
we remain a healthy sponge with dilapidated embers,
never rising till the body is in uprising.
The food stall is a beautiful place to die,
eaters eating their soul,
nibbling at their bubbling health like a rat,
you're a bloody bag of poison,
yet to explode,
In a lonely place filled with nothing,
after digestion comes ingestion
the reaper comes reaping a bountiful harvest,
a life cultivated,
a beautiful place to die.
POETIC NOTES, LITERARY APPRECIATIONS & ANALYSIS
A beautiful place to die is a poem that uses sarcasm and irony to portray an important but neglected point as well. It centers on the things that seems pleasurable to humans but definitely seems harmful on the long run. The poem narrates a particular eating habit that seems very enjoyable, howbeit, it's dangerous.
The eating habit of some people seems very satisfying, they go about their daily life activities knowing about the danger or the health disadvantage of their eating pattern which can cause heart disorder, dieseses, diabetes or even worse.
The poem however does not mention this eating pattern, it however stresses out the pleasure of these food that are unhealthy yet humans indulge in it,he calls it a beautiful place to die. Many feel healthy and alive, however their digestive and nervous system are in terrible damage and thus reducing their life span unknown to them.
The poem paints a serious issue using delicate euphemisms, sarcasm and irony (of which is seen in the title) to relate the danger of some eating pattern cultivated by humans.
