        Blue can of steel

        What promise do you hold?

        Salt flesh so ripe



        Can of metal, slick

        Soft center, so cool, moistening

        I yearn for your salt



        Twist, pull the sharp lid

        Jerks and cuts me deeply but

        Spam, aah, my poultice



        Silent, former pig

        One communal awareness

        Myriad pink bricks



        Clad in metal, proud

        No mere salt-curing for you

        You are not bacon



        And who dares mock Spam?

        You? you? you are not worthy

        Of one rich pink fleck
