Not For Me

Taramasalata, not for me Ground up fishes eggs Looks like something that should be Smeared on face or legs Taramasalata, not for me Sure ain’t finger lickin’ The only eggs I have for tea Come out of a chicken Taramasalata, not for me Though I do like fish Throw their eggs back in the sea It’s one repugnant dish Taramasalata, not for me Bring another starter That looks nice, what might it be Taramasalata!

Hi Anil. Visited your page and read some of your poems. Unfortunately, religion leaves me cold so I feel any comment I made would be less than genuine. This is no reflection on your poems which, I’m sure to someone of like mind, would be well received. Terry
