Food/Beverages I'm A Pancake (abstract)
Karyn Indursky
I'm batter
mixed up, stirred, and baked
in the oven of life.
I'm tested
from time to time by folks poking at me
to see where I'm at.
I get turned over and flipped
to be looked at every side, every angle
to see if I'm just right.
I get burned
by the heat beneath me,
which is really just the cooker loving the control.
I'm being served
to everyone to be tasted and felt
in their teeth after they've smelled my lingering invite.
I'm tossed away
after they've had their fill
and want to move on past me.
I'm a pancake.
