Ah . . . yes.  I recognize this feeling!  It totally works for either eating disorder.  Shame and food.  Yuck.  I agree that the line "tongue and palate secrete enzymes" is awkward (and the scientist in me which lacks a sense of poetic license says, "it's not the tongue . . . it's the Ebner gland").  ((Please don't use Ebner gland in a poem!!!))  I also wonder about the spoon "sanding" skin . . . do spoons sand?  Or is that an intentional phrase.  All in all, I really like this poem.
