Craziest Time At the Time of Spilled Soup

Craziest Time at the Time of Spilled Soup I spilled a bowl of vegetable soup – Slipped on the shiny waxed floor; The scene I saw made my muse utter expletives – Fainting in horror at the kitchen door. Choruses of carrots crushed on the curtains Prose of Potatoes pelted the windowpanes Lyrics of limas littered the linoleum Odes of onions overturned on the oven Turnips of Thesaurus tumbling free Sonnets of seasoning scorched on the stove top Epics of eggplant - emjambment escaping Ballads of beets beat feet to the back porch Meters of mushrooms marching on marble Verses of “vege’s” with visible vertigo Prosody of pumpkin all over the place Rhymes of rutabagas running-a-muck Blues of black beans bashed in the butler’s pantry Couplets of croutons covered the ceiling Free verse of fiddleheads floats by the “frig” Sestinas of spinach stuck to the sink. Oh, what a sight of poetic distress – Letters and phrases all over the space Carefully sorted all the rhythms and rhymes Put everything back in its proper place.
