Hot Pot
As though
the pot were
a basin, where
lettuce, spinach and cabbage
grow, where cows
and sheep graze.
And fat fish and shrimp
swim and swarm
the river surface.
We watch -
in the boiling
spicy soup, the greens
absorbing drops of oil
turn glossy green.
Red and white
slices sink then rise,
in curled and uncurled
shapes.
That is how
they assimilate in
this rich broth,
a collage of tastes
and colors,
a beauty in one pot
while still keeping
their own unchangeable
identities.
