Last Supper


I thought it was Good Friday
so I pulled a Cod filet from the freezer
leaving it to thaw in the strainer

Once at room temperature
I thought I would soak it in a mixture
of Amber Ale & a scrambled egg
coat it w/crumbled Frosted Flakes

I imagined I would pan sear it
in Olive Oil & a pat of butter
serve it w/a chunk of homemade bread

It was supposed to be my Last Supper
but for whatever reason
I don’t remember a Goddamn Thing
