Either Way, I’m Pro-Onion
When does a bagel start to be?
is one of life’s great mysteries
Is dough the only needed thing? or does it have to be a ring?
Will boiling it a bagel make? or must it have begun to bake?
Though we may never solve this question we know that they end with digestion

Don’t Do This (II)
I counted my onion bagels before they boiled
1 bagel, 2 bagel, 3 bagel, 4 (!)
One fell on the ground and got totally soiled 1 bagel, 2 bagel, 3 (and no more)
My tongue-wagging dog soaked another in slobber 1 bagel, 2 bagel (oh how depressin’)
Then the last two got snatched by a breakfast food robber 0 bagels left (but I learned a good lesson!)

Don’t Do This (I)
I put all my bagels in one basket
Then scrambled them up just like eggs
Straight to the top, only onions did pop
So I gave them all some more shakes
And once I was sure they were shuffled (On this fact I knew I could swear) I looked at the bin — all onions again! The shock knocked me right to the floor
But during my drop it so happened I bumped the basket off the range And as they did fall, onions one and all They knocked something right in my brain
For though all my efforts at mixing Intended to diversify them I guess I forgot, all I ever bought Were bagels with onions inside them!

the struggle
quite often when i’ve ate my din
the folks i know won’t say hello
though i nod and wave they act like they’ve
never seen my face and away they race
leaving me alone to cry and moan
what could it be that makes them flee?
yet deep down i know with each burp i blow
that my bagel breath sickens them to death
yes my love of onion has me shunned and all this scorn leaves me somewhat torn should i change my flavor to gain their favor — or enjoy my food in solitude?

A Bitter Split
Although once inseparable,
things mightily changed
when the bottom smelled
suspiciously of onions
Top left the bread box moved back with its folks
The crumbs are the ones really suffering

not the silly car i drove
or the goofy hair i had
not the food we didn’t eat
or the movie that was bad
not the single-gendered dorm
with girls passing in the hall
not the rectress around the corner
watching one and all
not even the smell of onion bagels
from the garbage bin
could keep our lips from touching
once our romance did begin
