If variety is the spice of life,
Please hold the seasoning.
At least for a bit.
Let my palate adjust
To the heat
And the sweet,
And then I may return
to ask
for more flavor.
That’s how this works,
Right?
I’m Spicy!
exercising heart and mind, lest I waste away
defying atrophy 
Nice extended metaphor. 🙂
