MSG used to mean:
"monosodium glutamate"

Is she?
She couldn’t!
But is she?

Very Very Many
stars orbiting
the Burroughs
surely that means
s o m e t h i n g.

in bumper to bumper
somewhere
between Stamford
and Bridgeport.
And the breathy
side-eye-slash-yearning

on all things MSG
flow onto my screen
obliterating everything
like autumn leaves
on a windy October morn.
Madison
Square
Garden party?
Baby we can
shake
shake
shake it up.
Whether Umami
Or celebrity tsunami
However it shakes out
MSG packs a punch.
