#2 – SPAM POEM
by John Strong

Eat-It-#2-(Spam)
Oh SPAM! Oh SPAM! Gourmet delight!
My food by day, my dreams by night.
To carve, to slice, to dice you up
Pureed in a blender and sipped from a cup

What shining deity from Olympus knelt
Down to the earth and hog butt smelt?
Creating then man’s eternal desire
For swine entrails congealed by fire.

On some corporate farm, a pig has died
Eyes, tongue, and snout end up inside
That cube of SPAM hidden in the can
I now hold in my trembling hand

More than mere food, SPAM is for me
A hedonistic expression of gluttonous glee.
Mottled with pork fat, the pink cube engrosses
My mouth takes it in, my intestine disposes

Long have my arteries clogged to the sound
Of sizzling SPAM when there’s no one around
Furtively chewing or swallowing whole
Triple bypass by forty, my medical goal

Other processed meat products I’ve tried or declined
Vienna Sausages, Treet, even pig’s feet in brine
Though each may be tasty in different ways
None matches SPAM for gelatinous glaze.

That glistening pinkness beckons me
With gristle, fat, and BHT
Oh Spam, my Spam – the taste, the smell
The sacred meat product from Hormel
