Food provides

nutrients for body, giving energy

and sustenance for growth.

But sometimes, body

rejects ingredients,

unable to stomach,

spewing out toxic waste.

If someone insists

what they’re serving you is love,

know what they are offering you

is all their culinary skill permits.

Notice how it sits;

a highly absorbable nutrient, or

is it making a mess of you?

Then choose to sit down

to the table of love, or walk away

from a plate

half full.
