Farmer Tales II

Steve, I have to say I am impressed. It's not often someone can take a salmonella outbreak and somehow make it sexy, BUT YOU DID. Of course, I should have known better. Anything less would be a club, not a spade. And that's how you operate, right? Guillotine efficiency.

I play hot-tomato with the idea of consuming it everyday.

ouch ouch ouch.
How am I ever going to stand next to you on a stage without looking like a fool?

Hiding my two favorite parts,
She calls them red lingerie,

Yeah, I like the conceit here too. I had to look up Salmonella Saint Paul to find its link to tomatoes - so I have learnt something too. Should 'emotional' be 'emotionally'?
Those must be very frustrating farm lands! I feel your pain.
Good stuff! Now I am going to find The prequel to this piece.

I love these poems that speak of one thing and reference another. I want to work the farm fields! Excellent write.
