Olives

Someone poisoned these olives 

The flavour is different to what I remember 

My grandpa made them extra salty 

These olives are bitter

Perhaps they are some kind of vintage 

Special acquired taste 

Winner of the bests 

Rare artisan blend 

Weeks in salt from mountain tops 

Brewed with rainbow drops 

Fuck these olives

I want my grandpa back

The wrinkles, the bald head 

He was something else

Rare artisan blend 

Kind and wise and extra salty

He died when he was faulty

I’ll never taste his olives again

This memory is pain
