Lunch

The little circles of rice, seaweed, crab
Lay in perfect rows on a plate
A small culture of uniformity
Order
Cold

I mix brown liquid and green paste
In a small dish set aside
Dip
One bite

This is not the proper way to eat sushi
But it tastes good to me
And doesn't that count for something

aw, you said sushi in the last stanza and gave it away.
anyway, i like the neat refrain-feeling parts at the end of each stanza.
