about

I am a popular photographer that bakes
millions of followers and everyone will say
that every shot I take, will make you salivate
everybody’s favorite pictures are of pizza

and in the morning without warning they arrive
requests for recipes of pictures posted previous nights
and I am proud to say I never once replied
my secrets with me die,my recipe for pizza

and then a letter came that I couldn’t turn away
a local restaurateur offering to pay
more money than I’d make
in the next 500 days
so eventually we came
to an agreement

he would hire me as chef in charge of pies
I’d sneak ingredients into the back and hide
away from prying eyes
he’d rebrand and advertise
and gain exclusive rights to
my world famous pizzas

and on reopening night
there was a band to hype
a food critic type
who got the first invite
he got the first slice
he took the first bite
he spits it out
and the band ignites

of course the critic gave the restaurant lowest rank
and in every follow up interview I gave
I admit that to this day
I still have yet to taste
I’ve never had pizza

there was an accident when I was only five
it left my taste buds permanently fried
so I focused on my eyes
and later I’d decide
to photograph what people like
and people like pizza

It can bring a certain joy from deep inside
don’t take for granted the feelings that arise
and on your next slice
know there’s someone that will die
without ever having tried
