To Spaghetti Carbonara Poem by Matthew Johnson

Spaghetti Carbonara is a taste
To savour. Every six months I need
The bacon submerged in delicate cheese;
The pasta, soft, with which I stuff my face,
Melts in the cream. This bloody great plateful
Satisfies my stomach and rather pleases
My taste buds. Ah! I wish I could just freeze
This sensation so grand, to remove all hate
In life. But it cannot be so, for that
Requires a freshness of taste beyond me.
Unless I want to end up round and fat,
And ruin flavours exquisite and sweet,
Making more Carbonara ain't an option:
It's best to savour the flavour sensation.
