On feasts and slabs

Love the dinner party feast illustration!  There are many mosaic floors that show the food dropped on the floor after the dinner party-- you have to wonder what the slaves who were cleaning up and polishing the floor mosaics after the party thought of that particular visual joke.

I like your hendecasyllabic couplet as well-- right on subject, and hendecasyllabic as well.  I might have chosen a different monosyllable than "slabs," however, as that word always reminds me of mortuary slabs.  Too many episodes of CSI, perhaps.
