"Going Back"...

" Going Back "

Going back
as far as
my memory
will take me

simply sautéed
fingerling potatoes
as a grand showcase
on the blue plates
of previous generations

packing more
into less space
for easy tastings
of big flavors

ubiquitous
at holiday tables
like brandy-
soaked raisins
in fruitcake...
