You are going to miss my rice and beans

You are going to miss
my rice and beans.
Every time
you think
of me,
the
exotic aroma
of salsa
lingering
and
memories
of our home
will only
serve
to haunt
as
they seduce
your wanton
senses....

Pork chops,
cube steak,
white rice,
red rice,
oven baked chicken
and
sofrito in the mix...

A dash of Adobo -
Ah...
chipotle salsa...
all
so passionately wed
in
an orgasmic symphony
of ingredients
synchronized
with
the three/two,
two/three
rhythm
of this Latinos
heartbeat...

Ay, Mi Amor,
you are going to miss
my sensual
Puerto Rican
Cuisine...
Your ravenous appetite
will betray you
as
your empty stomach
growls
in lust,
desiring
to be fed.

Have
sweet thoughts
of me
in your pretty
little head
as you lay
in someone else's bed...

Most of all,
I will miss
what
we both
brought
to the table...
