You know, I once dreamed I lived in a world where all sorts
of kitchen implements were gifted with the power of speech.
When I'd smash garlic, the chef's knife would groan with
pleasure; when I chopped onions, it would cry along with me.
My grandmother's pot & kettle never said a word,
though--they were too proud of having passed their years in
the proud tradition of silence. Eventually we melted them
down & made them into a radio.
