This poem utterly and blatently and purposefully ignores the themes that drive modern poetry. It is insultingly apolitical. If all poems were about what food we like to eat, then literary schollars of the future would be as boring as dieticians. A history of what peoplr like to eat and that is all. Everyone hates dieticians! If the sausages represented something alegorically the poem would have been OK. Maybe the conflict of feminism as a belief vs. feminism as a tenet? PS I like chorizo
