Knives

darkreflectivefierce

Plastic, butter, kitchen, and metal, all of the same blood.
Same blood but pigmy variations, cuts, and also make food.
Blunt plastic ends and sharp acerbic metal tips
pierce the fruits and also your turkey’s lips.

Used by chefs, common folk, and criminals alike,
when by the chef turns the mouth red and when by the killer turns the whole body red.
Entertainment in the circus, tool in the kitchen, and weapon in the alley,
such a multifaceted tool as it adapts itself to the user’s gally.

Just like the elixir of life which prolongs when calm and ends when angry,
a knife too helps quench our hunger when hungry and quenches our rage when angry.

Life too is an abstract invisible knife that helps when used correctly and destructs when used imprudently.
No tool discriminates its subject, for all it can do is execute the user’s directives unequivocally.
