Left over Spices and Herbs

by Ivan Saldarriaga

I can picture myself hugging a Jasmine,
Jogging around town with a Holly,
Dancing the night away with a Strawberry,
But I just can't see much love for a Lovage.

I would play board games with a Ginger,
Cross the Mexican border to be with a Cinchona,
Read Damien in bed with a Damiana,
But only dull times loom for me and Dill.

I could see myself checkin out a "Rosehips",
getting in a barfight with a butch truckdriver named Mace, (thinking she was a man)
Meeting the beautiful Asian Mei Yen,
But I only predict pain with a Paprika.
