Duck
Some people prefer duck
For Thanksgiving or Christmas
I think I'd prefer the duck
Swimming around
I find duck greasy and unappetizing
Maybe because of my hellish experience
Eating it in a fancy restaurant
Having duck delivered first with
Head neck and all
When all it did was ignite
Acid reflux for a week

Repeating the taste
Forever more
If only in my memory.
