Heart-Chip


My soulmate

is a kettle-cooked

backyard barbeque

potato chip

shaped like a heart,

showing up unexpectedly

and against all likelihood

of existing at all.


I'm enjoying the below

average activity

of eating chips

and watching Netflix

when there she is

upon my lips.


I see her before

she is eaten, destroyed.

Put her on my altar.


Overflowing with gratitude, joy

that she exists.


The miracle is always right now.
