prompt: describe yourself in the form of a recipe!
here’s mine:
start by basing your soup in a hearty vegetable broth, complete with jersey tomatoes and twigs and flowers from random philadelphia parks or the jersey pine barrens. sprinkle in paprika, the smiles of her family and friends, saffron, and her collection of rocks and shells from the shoreline. add in her favorite phrases from the current book that she’s reading to enhance the flavor. as the soup simmers, you may hear the sounds of dodie, pinegrove, queen, gorillaz, and her current obsession of carol king. serve in a colorful bowl designed like a mosaic in barcelona. all other ingredients can be found while mindlessly walking through the aisles of a philadelphia trader joe’s.

i wrote this one on a trip to see the solar eclipse this year. we were driving down the highway to get to the spot we had traveled so far to arrive at. to experience a miraculous three minutes and thirty-eight seconds. i felt like i could feel the anticipation in everything, even the other cars around us.
thanks for the artistic help with this one @cj-sass

Question: should I start titling my haikus?
