Remembrance of things eaten: Vegemite

Thick black ectoplasm of salty yeast extract.

The sickly sap of a burnt-out rainforest.

The fuel that keeps the death star running.

The collected sweat from a plague doctor's beak.

The spoiled milk of an incelibate man child.

The desperate venom of a severed snake.

The liquefied remains of a woolly mammoth.

The dead fish discharge of a rusty dinghy.

The viscous slime from a sewage farm diver.
I put it on my toast every morning.
