Tomato

tomato I used to pick them in my parents’ Iowa garden we sliced them and put sugar on them that made them delectable to me tomato sauce we used it on our Chef-boy-ar-dee boxed pizzas it was all bubbly and sometimes burned my tongue or the roof of my mouth tomato a term I used to hear applied to a young woman meaning luscious, ripe, sexy, this term originated in the twenties when women began wearing form-fitted clothing tomato can mean marijuana or a stupid act or a stupid person I frankly have never heard tomato used either way and I hope I never do tomato I love it hot, and I love it cold it makes my chili delicious I love adding slices to my grilled cheese sandwiches
