Potpourri Babycakes
The mish now buried in the mash,
the dog caught rooting through the trash
With litter scattered far and wide,
the pieces gather, the Cheshire hides
All lollygaggers out in front,
those last now first, a noble stunt
The blend what’s vital, layers bake,
Choo Choo Mamma—Potpourri Babycakes
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2017)
