Poem
I chase you through the bottle 
just trying to get a little taste, 
I pour your juice on my taters 
none of it I shall waste. 

I love your pickley goodness 
so crunchy and so sweet, 
with my fork I gently pick you up 
my mouth it does greet. 

A drop of juice silently falls 
and lands upon my plate, 
I swipe it up rather quickly 
and I don't bother to wait. 

Your vinegar touches my tastebuds 
it's such a yummy treat, 
I invite your friends out of the bottle 
with a smile for me they greet. 

They dance around on my plate 
saying hello to the rest of their friends, 
their greetings with the meat and veggies 
soon has to come to an end. 

I try to pick up another beet 
this one is putting up a fight, 
I do my best to stab it with my fork 
don't care if it takes me all night. 

I chase it around in circles 
in the corner of my plate it stands, 
it acts like the lone ranger 
tries its best to be tough like a man. 

I finally get hold of it 
it squirts me with its juice, 
I dropped it on my pants 
now I've got a beet on the loose. 

I got juice all over my shirt 
all over the place mat too, 
my shirt is now stained reddish-purple 
now what am I going to do? 

I tried my best to scrub the stain out 
while the beet stands there and laughs, 
I threw the bar of soap at him 
I was starting to feel rather daft. 

I knocked the beet to the floor 
he tried his best to move around, 
I stomped on his neck hard 
wanted to keep him on the ground. 

The beet tried to fight his way out 
from beneath my heavy foot, 
I laughed hard in his face 
back in the bottle, he will not be put. 

I slipped on his juice 
and fell hard to the floor, 
I go through this every time 
my life never seems to be a bore. 

I can't stand getting beet stains 
all over my new and clean clothes, 
I get extremely upset about it 
but that's sometimes how life goes.
