Potato salad news and a rib
in the local circulatory bowl today.
Selling black and white food for thought
on pages of large 'square minded' paper.

With a plastic spork I tried to swallow
a 'heaping helping' of the 'fine line' words
thin as the layer of charred meat
wrapped around the bone of a rib

Too many onions, not enough pickles,
same as yesterday, yard sales Saturday,
free meals for the mind only fifty cents
everyday except Sunday's literary buffet
... and coupons!

nice work :)

I agree with Tess, this poem is well worth the time to read.

You have come a long way from when I first read you.

Only thing I would suggest, is there anything else you can do to your words that have " " or ' ' ?

I really enjoyed this one

:)

I really like this. It uses the expression "food for thought" brilliantly. Most of have had reflux from consuming the morning news at one time or another.. Good one MET.
