Minor Woe / Morsels

Where is the lid to my smoked paprika?
It must have rolled underneath something
I had to make it a tin foil cover

I didn’t hear it turning
The flavour will go
Into the cupboard air

I need it to taste
For the left over leek
You split down the middle

You cook
& are the very picture
Of restraint 

what you
leave over 
always
— Bijou
Jewel-like
morsels.
