With no thought in my head of J. A. Prufrock
I bought a little colorful rock
that was labeled and looked like a peach.
I believed it would ripen as is nature’s plot.
That turned out to be a reach!
I just got to watch it rot.
Thomas Stearns, Mr. Eliot, sir,
I urge you from your grave bestir
and part, however, your thinning hair.
Wear your trouser bottoms rolled- or not.
But to sate your taste for that peach, don’t dare.
Consider instead a kumquat.
At the Supermarket the Other Day
