Do that There (Ft. Cut Chemist)

Treaty of Brussel Sprouts

A long, long time ago
people knew how to eat
fresh food found by hand,
unprocessed orange pulp,
cool cucumber meat.
They wrote recipes
to manifest their densities
with adolescent, russet potatoes
and uncooked carrots, feasts.
At the Treaty of Brussel Sprouts
where avocados and chickpeas
were crushed into paste for
the first time and passed
around an Arthurian round table
like drugs, a long, long
time ago people kissed each
other with papaya and pomegranate
still loitering on their lips.
