Meatballs
Is it or not, that is a luring question?
Is it nobler to remain silent or seek further aggression?
I choose to remain silent and stare at my four walls.
No need to get blind sided by a couple of meatballs.
There is pasta all around, drizzled with a buttery spread.
Finished off quite nicely with a slice of monkey bread.
Garlic baked in to attract all of the sniffers.
But the monkey sits alone, the bread it sure differs.
A lovely ensemble they make quite a pair.
Meatballs and a little pasta, maybe an angel hair.
They should stay on the table and off of the floor.
I’d hate to see these meatballs roll straight out the door.
