Warm beet flesh

Joe’s knife feels just right

Slicing to be pickled

Crimson red slides off the cutting board under cool water

doesn’t stain the wood

but when I wash my hands

I’m pink

About Me

An English diarist and naval administrator. I served as administrator of the Royal Navy and Member of Parliament. I had no maritime experience, but I rose to be the Chief Secretary to the Admiralty under both King Charles II and King James II through patronage, diligence, and my talent for administration.
