Guardian Angel

It is the same plate 
My fork scratched years ago
There is a little bit of me etched in it.
Hidden in the gold-maroon of its border,
Is the ghost of me
For your consumption

I am also hidden somewhere in your thoughts,
In your unconscious responses. 
Perhaps, in your enjoyment of glitter.

I am happy with this past.
My wishes are glad.
Piecemeal-me is nourishing:

The spirit is no poltergeist.
