What Does Life's Real Juice Taste Like? Poem by Chuy Amante

From one extreme to the other,
smiles, hate, fight a brother

the flavor of life has been found in extremes
after it's rich it gets real lean

accepting the high the low,
the hot the cold
the young the pretty
the ugly the old

two flavors; sweet and savory
to lick in between
requires bravery

dropping the boundaries and moving in,
finds the finest restaurant, no flavor of sin

nor sweet as bees to rot your teeth
the taste of perfect includes pure peace

the flavor of love
is life's best motivator

resolves all, rehabilitates haters

I love you
I hold none to blame
your path is perfect,
bipedal or lame,
for this you came.

Experience, savor the Flavor! ! !
