It Always Tastes Better When You're Starving

Today's Journal of Note:

Mad Hatter's Review

Poet and Poems (yes, plural this time) of the Issue:

Christine Hamm

"Architect of Appetite"
"What Hansel in His Cage is Forgetting"
"In the Witch's House, What Gretel Remembers"

These poems are original and delightful. Tasty, even. They stand alone, but there are more luscious layers to experience when read together.

My mama always says, "The best way to convince people your cooking's good is to starve them a little first."

She also says, "Just enough is just as good as a feast."

The moral dilemma of her logic and her plump body, rotund and ripe as a plum, eludes her, I think.
