"A puzzle for yous all..."

My first is in biscuit but never in cake
My second's in awesome but not in great
My third is in mother but not seen in dad
My fourth is in sunny but never in sad
My fifth is a vowel found in water not creek
My sixth is found only in one day of the week
My seventh's two of three that you learn when you're young
My eighth's not in song but it's there when it's sung
My ninth's in eleven and twelve, not thirteen
My tenth is in island and river, not stream
My eleventh's in precious and secret and paste
My twelfth is in phantom and spectre and haste
My whole stalks the night in a quiet dreamlike state
With no memories the next day of being out late

Was it that he ate the dish, decided that he'd never find a better meal in his life, so he simply commited suicide? (a long shot i know, but no ones said it yet)

Thats not quite correct

Your earlier question gives you a huge clue.

He killed himself because the dish he ordered didn't taste how it was supposed to?

That sounds even more ridiculous than my fortune cookie theory...

That is hard to answer.

Do you mean emotionally sad?

If so, I would guess that in the circumstances he would feel sad, but that isn't why he killed himself.

Erm...damn it!

Did he order something that he thought he recognised but when he tasted it, he didn't?
