Another nod to W.B.Yeats

Miss Piggy and the Swine

A sodden smack: the boar’s snout steaming still
Atop a piglet, pinkish ribs suppressed
By fleshy hams as juices slowly spill
On both and his chest mingles with her breast.

What way can tenderloins and forearms push
Away the marbled fat that’s twice her size?
How can a sow within that blubbery rush,
Avoid his popping belly bacon, thighs?

The blistering hams and hocks embracing her,
Smoke smells, bright sizzling coals, the basting beer,
Her flesh grown crisp.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Being so sauced up
And paired with a prize swine from County Fair,
Did she know flavor was their only power,
That Texas Barbeque was their last stop?
