Red Meat
I need a word.
Raw,
sliced right off the bone
without a marinade
uncooked, unseasoned
and not spiced
with adjectives or adverbs
to enhance or hide
its flavor
it must have a taste all its own
succulent scrumptious
and delicious
able to fill the appetite
of meaning
and easily digested
by the reader
it must be
the perfect
word
