the chosen one

there is one
knife in the drawer
that always
finds your hand
first.
it's different than the others.
wider,
heavier,
has a certain twist
in the handle, giving
it a
je ne sais quois.
are the others jealous,
perhaps.
but you know what you like
when you need
to smooth butter
onto a toasted slice
of warm bread.
