poor form –or– the embarrassed eater
oh
crap.
rushing
to spread
schmear on
my onion bagel,
__i inadvertently
_ _ _and tragically
__went right over
the hole again.
if that glop
drips into
my palm,
i may
die.

A Lapse in Judgement
Bagel blown to smithereens,
falling onion-flake-filled scenes.

I can’t believe what you did to your derm,
Covered with onion bagel tatts so perm!
Cupping your hand to my ear you now murm, (Those marks aren’t tatts; they’re a case of ringworm.)

from the baker in my building,
But when I bit that breaded band
it tasted bland and boring
Betting that the baker boiled a bad batch of his batter,
Betting that the baker boiled a bad batch of his batter,
I barked across the bar that
my bite should have been made better
I’d barely blurted this behest when back came blistering blame: This bunch was baked with onion bulbs, but you bought one marked “Plain”
