| 24 | | Dimly remembered celebrity chefs shuffle | ||
| 25 | | down the cold and darkened highways of the heart. | ||
| 26 | | They are the last personality left. They are [the meek | ||
| 27 | | who inherited the heart][meek], what was left of it.\ | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | | Without food to cook in new or exciting ways | ||
| 30 | | nor audience to gasp and cackle, the chefs | ||
| 31 | | of the heart quietly waste away while staring | ||
| 32 | | doe-eyed into now-empty Safeway windows | ||
| 33 | | checking under the dusty produce shelves | ||
| 34 | | for something they pray the [rats][] haven't found yet. | ||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | | Years ago, the economy of the heart boomed | ||
| 37 | | and there was food everywhere. Produce | ||
| 38 | | piled high in pyramids of devotion, meat in | ||
| 39 | | gilded glass cases opulent under fluorescence, | ||
| 40 | | dairy which ran like the [mythical river][] toward | ||
| 41 | | cereals hot and cold. Under it all, thrumming | ||
| 42 | | like great stone wheels on sand under a hot sun | ||
| 43 | | near a river where reeds sang in the wind | ||
| 44 | | the heart produced and gave reward for hard labor. | ||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | | No one knows when it all ended. No one can say | ||
| 47 | | if it was the heart that dried up or the heart's supply. | ||
| 48 | | Either way, food of the heart became scarcer and scarcer. | ||
| 49 | | People began dying, not of starvation | ||
| 50 | | but of a certain facial expression that could only | ||
| 51 | | be described as desperation. Now | ||
| 52 | | all that are left are the celebrity chefs, last bastion | ||
| 53 | | of a once mighty empire of the [heart | ||
| 54 | | are reduced to husks][heart] blown dry by wind. | ||
