Contributor Series 8: Feast and Famine
The Omnivorous Restaurant Critic
By Neil Ellman

In the end
he eats his words
when nothing else is left
but syllables en croute
sentences beurre blanc
a bouillabaisse
of mindless sounds
homographs that taste the same—
his bitter tact
upon his tongue.



Neil Ellman's poem Horse's Skull with White Rose appeared at vox poetica in December 2010.
