Premiere Contest WinnerA Sporkful of Surreal

usurping the scene
with slurping obscene 
sputtering spittle and steam
then spraying a particle beam
that succotash was green
if you know what I mean

(be careful where you eat beans)

Congratulations on your win. Succotash is good if it is made right. Most overcook it and do not know how to season it. Your pen was writing funnies. "Good Job" Enjoy your win with blessings........................

Thanks for the hilarity, dear friend!... Also, your title brings back a fond memory: I was teaching ESL to rank beginners a couple of decades ago. I was teaching them the words 'spoon' and 'fork.' I then held up a spoon and asked the class 'What's this? --Everyone shouted out: 'Spork!' I'm still laughing!. Season's best, Maureen. :) Gershon
