A fork tine could take your eye out. A knife can open veins.
But think of the spoon, the smooth, gentle spoon, first utensil to slip into
the receptive pink mouth of the infant, slurried squash in its dip, first utensil
made by human hands, round of edge, small mound on back, a hollow, a curve, a
handle, the harm it could do, nothing more than a fast thwap on the ass and a
bright mark left behind that would fade inside of an hour.
