An apology for Cheese.
it can be kept in the fridge indefinitely
it can be eaten with wine and tantalize the palate
It is the whey and the curd
it is the long maturation period
it is the alchemy of farts and cholesterol
it is the midden of our desires
it is the armpit of food
it is the toe cheese and ear cheese
it is in our fungal nature.
An apology for Cheese.

I see a rather clever plan in your poem, Tony: To get people to eat less cheese so there will be more for you. You've got one thing right about cheese: It is all about bacteria and fungus. Maturation, farts, sex, armpits, toe cheese, all things that exist because of bacteria or fungus.
I'm not sure how much the poem works, as it is very simple without any twists in meaning or plot, but I like it well enough.

If you don't like the black theme, it is easy to switch to a lighter color. Just ask me how.
If I don't critique your poem, it is probably because I don't understand it.

Counting the slow heart beats,
The bleeding to death of time in slow heart beats,
Wakeful they lie.
