Peanut Butter Is Better

Yes, you certainly did read that right. Peanut butter is better then bitter books because.... bitter books don't go well with your favorite jelly. And that's just the plain truth. In a nutshell if I may. It's simple really. If you can imagine smearing your favorite butter be it crunchy chunky or even creamy all over the most bitter book rather than lavishly atop your favorite jam well then I think you can imagine just what I mean. The pulp would stink. And what else could be worse? So hear me versed if you ever want to make a bitter book better than rather slather your fave butter into it save for the real jam and use something else, like... well ... I don't know what would be good with bitter books but... having said that I'll also add save your nuts for the fruitcake anyway. ... pause ... :)~ AND laugh...

This is great. A lovely piece of absurdism that has a logic. I wouldn't have those opening and closing lines they read too much as an instruction to the reader. I think the poem stands alone. Just have some trust in the reader.
