I know that what I eat is not actually a fruit
or a chicken soup
I know that this shitty porridge is not a steak,
but as long as I have my imagination to tell me that it is
that's a steak for me.
They give us something called milk nowadays
and it's even crappier than the tap water;
nobody says anything for one cannot buy the milk directly from a farmer -
the modern sanitation says: no, no, that certainly has microbes...
The taste police is in place
and we drink sand in remembering the water
taken from a fountain when we were kids.
