My Ego


from the ABC set Poems and the Like

God, I'm good.
Bl'm'n brilliant, I am!
I mean, at everything, y'know?

Not just at sandwich-making,
Bacon frying,
Fence painting,
Gerbil training,

Walnut cracking,
Button sewing,
Marble rolling,
Paperclip straightening,

Stamp licking,
Potato scrubbing,
TV tuning,
Toenail clipping,

Tambourine shaking,
Spoon bending,
Carpet fitting,
Hole punching.

But
Like
Y'know

Everything!

.
.
.

Not so good at poetry, though.
