Recipe for Me



Recipe for Me
by Izzybeth

I am salt
in a measuring spoon
an acrid taste
when you get
too much
but still needed
to make
things right
yet getting the blame
if things
go wrong
never leveling
off
never measuring
up

I don’t get
to be sugar or
good old
flour or
teaspoons of vanilla or
even just a pinch
of salt thrown
over your shoulder
for luck
always just
too much or
never enough
salt
