yer betteren me

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

yer betteren me

i like reading yer pottery
you are creativer than i yam

i wished my mind werked like that
my thoughts unravel like poured gravel

dumped on a road of confusion
but at least my spilling 
and grandeur 

is improving

but
i still like reading yer pottery
it's always a bowl 
shaped of good werds.

Takes a little over 5 minutes to boil up a saucepan of alphabet pasta. Not exactly a classic ode or gourmet fare, time wise. But take an extra minute or so heat a pan of olive oil, add crushed pepper and garlic, then top off with homemade tomato basil garnish, and hey presto, instant, if still slightly bland success. Plus, if you get bored, you can always make up a poem from the letters swirling around in the bowl. :))

Wish I cud rite a pome that quik. :))

Beccy.

You are better than me... I think this is the title. She was more proper in her words, but less heart in it. He was willing to follow this superficial art..

Interesting sardonic and witty tilt at the windmills of the mind of the less well educated like wot I am Jacob!
