Potato Poem


Peeled lively this hot tot

Getting dressed for dinner

Scrubbed and rubbed; soft sensations

Listening to a bubbling pot

 

Hands of the cook supporting buck assed naked

Whistling a tune as he grabbed a spoon

Looking for some sour cream and butter

Thinking though, not so much the tuber, rather,

of

her,

the neighbor watering flower pots.
