Egg of yesteryears,
Fave of younger years.
It's hot, but it cools.
It's a meal and it heals.
It switches you to good mode,
Even when you're on beast mode.
Your mood turns true
Even when you're blue.
An eggless life is woe
Tastes even better than roe.
"Balut" is the name
Worthy in the Hall of Fame.

Incense wafts
amongst the silent crowd
a loud sneeze out
eggless breakfast
in her little backyard
a yellow chick tweets
last day of lent
sharing pea-soup
with a fly
Good Friday
the clack of rosary-beads
in the village square

When a chicken can no longer lay any eggs,
it is generally because,
the chicken has reached that change of life
known as henopause.

TWO COUPLETS ON “ FLAWLESS vs FLAWS “
POEM 1
I had no idea what he meant :
We bought a small one-roomed unfinished apartment.
He said I was too critical, always looking for flaws.
This apartment was 16 floors up but had no floors.
16 floors up, this room has its floors up. As I speak,
The floor’s up with guys looking for water leak.
Looking for flaws ?!
Damn right I was I was looking for floors!
This place wasn’t flawless, it was floorless;
As well - by the way - as doorless.
POEM 2
What is the real story with Aunt Jemima’s pancake mix?
You gotta add egg, sugar, and milk, before you can fix
A breakfast or lunch pile of flapjacks,
And sit back, eat, digest and relax.
Our Aunt’s eggless, sugarless, milkless, but not flourless.
Her packets of stuff are certainly flawless.
Let’s hope she continues with at least her flours,
For if her stuff is flourless : and then it will have flaws.
