We Are Always Searching
One word is more clichéd than any other, love. We hear that damn word every day in movies, poems, and pathetic romance novels finding the perfect love. This Valentine’s Day of 2014, sucks as I work with decaying food in Safeway’s meat department. Smell of rotten meat being scanned for inventory of the meat barrels, unused meat. My eyes are pleased afterwards to see beautiful, white marble meat, uncut. The meat looks amazing like snow. Before I begin cutting into tri-tip, I see everyone fleeing on tip toes with over wasted roses that will be thrown away, 10-12 balloons for an added touch, turd shaped hearts of mashed chocolate , and the classic four-foot teddy bears. I remember being like that years ago, being in love and feeling I had everything. It didn’t become a fairy tale that ends so pretty, for me.
