Mixed and Mingled (Day 908)

Hearts of artichokes offer subtle resistance

then subside against the angled blade. 

Dusky as a day-old bruise, olives submerge, 

grateful, into their vinaigrette whirlpool, 

joined by a roisterous crowd of rotini, fêted 

with bell-pepper confetti and a flurry of feta. 

And so—having mixed and mingled—to bed, 

in the dark sanctuary of a well-covered bowl.
