Oh, pickled cabbage!
How could one be so divine?
Red, hot, spicy – yum!

Crunch, chew, then swallow.
A fragment of Korea,
Held between chopsticks.

A kaleidoscope
Of tastes, smells – culture, as well.
Just one more bite, please?

You just made me hungry. Probably wasn't a great idea to read a poem about food when I'm fasting. XD Excellent poem. I'm having fun envisioning this poem.
