Lesson in the kitchen

Autumn Looijen

--

Slow spirals, gentle pressure, turn the heat up. Oil the edges.

It’s firming up as we kiss. One minute only; we can’t let it burn.

Turn away, a flick of the wrist, turn the heat down.

I’ve only just stepped into the forest of your eyes and already I’m lost, my breadcrumbs disappeared. I find my way back by the scent of dosas browning on the stove.
