Food in Heaven
I remember he said “I’m thinking: what is the taste of food in heaven?” The cancer cells were quick to try and take the “grandpa” from him. Soon, all that kept him with us would look like nothing more than an unmoving mannequin. And now, here we are, tasting earthly tastes, our jaws severing burritos, our thinking-skulls, above ground, below heaven, asking if there even is such a place… And you say, “I don’t know, sometimes I fear heaven will grow boring.” Wherewith, I come to you with sharp ideas: “Heaven = Infinity, Right? Infinity + Pleasure = Heaven. Thus, heaven is endless pleasure?” We went on eating, waiting till when we put him in the ground.
