Aroma/ Odor-Their Difference for weeks, now, I’ve taken to watching Emeril ya know, Legasse from “Emeril Live” with his delectable, culinary fantasies for the tongue delightful, garlic enriched feasts have donned my table and dominated the airs of my ways at the end of the day I step across the threshold into the aroma of a recent repast a lovely invitation to a packaged repeat waiting in iceboxed reflection a wonderful greeting after a hard day’s work yet this one day upon reaching my entry a pungent odor, of another sort, hit me smack in the nasal cavities a recollection of the morning, its hastened preparations and rapid departure, told the tale the reason for the wrinkling of my nose, the putrid formation of my lips in a sneer, the horrid distaste that permeated my nasal passages and coated my tongue with rancor, rancor at myself for my absent-minded rushing of the morning, “I forgot to sift the litter-box!” ©November 12, 2002 Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
