To Die For

I choose to see that as poison, not to die for. It is to die for, it will kill you!....I need to change my frame of reference about how I describe food. ~ Miranda O

When they speak of the newest recipe,
the food from the greatest bakery,
from the most famous chef
and call it "to die for"
they speak the truth!
Like from the mouths of babes,
from those who don't understand,
from people who draw their pleasure
from that which is destructive,
from the old patterns we've long-ago learned
bring humiliation, self-hatred, misery…
from them we hear "to die for"
and know it's a message from the Power
that Is, and it's absolutely true.
That food is to die for but I choose to live.
