Short Wonton Poems

The Chinese head out for bagels 
    The Jews are imbibing wonton
Makes it hard to decide 
   which side that I'm on!...

Anonymity is a writer's right
Neither confess but remain out of sight
Oppress persecution before it arrives
Nurture decent in secret disguise
You may have the truth about the lies
Mine secretly what men dispise
Obscurity from wonton eyes
Undermine but not represent
Secretly love without consent
Liberate without signing on
Yield not to waiting scorn....

Our hostess had creamed cheese in pea pods.
I loved it!
And jalapeno jelly in wonton wraps.
I love jalapeno. 
I made a pig of myself.
Snorting and chomping.
Squealing with hog gusto.
She brought out strawberry turkey salads.
She’s like Martha Stewart, my friend suggested.
Except she has probably never been in jail, I replied.
Jealous of both of them....

Peppered passions poetic pistachios 
Onions fashioned like sonnets season soul
Eggs elevated eccentric embraces
Timeless haiku like wonton soup with sages
Racing red romantic bean ballard 
Yellow limericks of potato salad 

Salty somber sayings sweetly sly tribute 
Oregano onomatopoeia monotone lines of truth
Universal utterances of sensual Senryu 
Paprika topping the cheesy poetry soup...

A Vishyssoise of poets
Chicken soup for the soul
A site for we, who use it
Our talents to extol

A borscht of bards and artists
A consomme of flair!
Sonneteers and writers
Who with our pen do dare!

Poetry Soup I love you!
Anonymous yet warm
A broth of faceless friends
A shelter from the storm

A hearty bowl of stock
With feedback, thanks and praise
A wonton soup of cyber chums
With talent to amaze!...
