Well that's pretty cool and what a unique perspective and very different way of writing it quite enjoy looking at it too it's aesthetically pleasing the dark background with the lovely text choice makes it stand out very well. That sandwich is making me hungry though LOL. I enjoy your word choices in your sentence structure too I also see no issues with grammar or aesthetics a great submission I wish you best of luck I hope your Christmas was great and your New year's will be even better have a wonderful evening!

Those delicatessens and similar specialty shops are seen more rarely now. You have described this one very well and shaped your lines perfectly. I particularly enjoyed the originiality of the first two lines.

The delicatessen was always my favourite stall in the supermarket and yet these days it has lost its uniqueness due to shortages. We cannot get authentic greek yoghurt, or french cheeses now because of Brexit. The shelves are empty and we no longer welcome the delicate European flavours, I enjoyed your sentiment here, love Dolly x

You made me hungry while reading this! Isn't it great how a well-loved local eatery can really worm its way into your heart and become an intrinsic part of the local tapestry. Thanks for the share.

I loved this look at a very specific place and experience. Turning a simple meal into a commentary on local cuisine was impressive. The short lines gave the reader the time to pause between thoughts and savour the poem, like one savours food. Well done.
