For Those Who Want To Know How It Feels to Have Butter Knives for Biceps by E L Silver, USA

For Those Who Want To Know How It Feels to Have Butter Knives for Biceps

She says she hates being cutlery,
handled for deliciousness she can’t even taste
and washed hot for another slobbering mouth.
I say I always thought I was a spork
and I’m getting used to being disposable.

E L SILVER is currently a student at NYU, reading and writing as much as his eyes will let him. He performs slam poetry when ever he can, most notably at the Apollo Theater and in Boston for CUPSI 2010. He loves the sound of contractions, and hopes people enjoy his constructions of nouns, verbs, adjectives, and the occasional onomatopoeias.
