Spam Haiku

  1.
  Blue can of steel
  What promise do you hold?
  Salt flesh so ripe

  2.
  Can of metal, slick
  Soft center, so cool, moistening
  I yearn for your salt

  3.
  Twist, pull the sharp lid
  Jerks and cuts me deeply but
  Spam, aah, my poultice

  4.
  Silent, former pig
  One communal awareness
  Myriad pink bricks

  5.
  Clad in metal, proud
  No mere salt-curing for you
  You are not bacon

  6
  And who dares mock Spam?
  You? you? you are not worthy
  Of one rich pink fleck

  7.
  Like some spongy rock
  A granite, my piece of Spam
  In sunlight on my plate

  8.
  Little slab of meat
  In a wash of clear jelly
  Now I heat the pan

  9.
  Oh tin of pink meat
  I ponder what you may be:
  Snout or ear or feet?

  10.
  In the cool morning
  I fry up a slab of Spam
  A dog barks next door

  11.
  Pink tender morsel
  Glistening with salty gel
  What the hell is it?

  12.
  Ears, snouts and innards
  A homogenous mass
  Pass another slice

  13.
  Old man seeks doctor
   "I eat Spam daily", he says.
  Angioplasty

  14.
  Highly unnatural
  The tortured shape of this "food"
  A small pink coffin

  15.
  Pink beefy temptress
  I can no longer remain
  Vegetarian
