Waxing poetic about leftovers

Once piping hot and fresh
Seasoned just right
Saucy in all the right places
In 5 ways, a delight
Smell, appetizing
Taste, scrumptious
Sight, mouth-watering
Sound, sizzling
Feel, substantial
Isn’t just an ode to cold pizza
But to all things
Found again
Enjoyable
A second time around
Define it for yourself

For some, it means
Fortifying portfolios with precious metals and cryptocurrencies
Dividend-paying, securities full of value
Taming that fierce lion of inflation
For others, it means
Running to their fortresses of worship
Or the rereading of holy books
And bending of knees on a bed’s side
Still others, it means
Building underground bunkers for a select few
Stocking up of non-perishable foods and water
Upon hearing the pitter-patter on the drums of war
Yet others, it means
Fleeing crime-filled metropolises
Remembering that America still had small towns
Seeking their own Mayberry
Let’s all find it
Safety, that is
Whether it’s from within or out
