A Tomato Video

A tomato Video 

Conversation with an omelette you can, if it is filled with tomatoes.
Apparently, trees talk to flowers a tomato soaks up this information
gives it to us when we eat one. After going on about tomatoes
the lecturer cuts a tomato in half and we hear a scream
the speaker declares he has two tomatoes plus a bloody finger.
Many videos’ maker's dreams, is to stand alone on a stage and talk about
things the makes no sense to others other than themselves.
They thank, the audience who are blissfully absent, and blend
into the dark background convinced they are famous.
Spending an evening looking through videos, I determined after due deliberation, 
they were inane and utterly dreary.
Their point was to stay under the spotlight, applauded by phantom fans, 
their mother and aunts for a few minutes.
Finally, I struggle to know what a tomato makes out of being eaten alive!
