For a Leg

It’s not right
to have
a sack of potatoes
for a leg.

Pick another vegetable,
something less starchy
with more fiber
and vitamin C.

Our audience
will identify
with a bundle
of curly kale

or a jicama pile,
preferably one
on top of the other
on top of the other.

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children. View all posts by Aidan Badinger
