Potato Salad
My potato salad is pretty bland
but I make it all by hand.
And, it isn’t my fault
That my mom never taught me to use salt.
No onions, spices or flavor of any kind
the product of an uninspired mind.
But, I find all your complaints invalid
so let me enjoy my potato salid.
Cuttlefish
The cuttlefish is a cephalopod
Who feels that he’s a gift from God
A cuttlefish is a lot like a squid
Only the cuttle moves more slowly than it ever did
His brain to mass ratio is the highest ever,
so, for an invertebrate, he’s awfully clever
They also have three hearts
eight arms, two eyes and some inky parts
Finally, the cuttlefish
can turn any color that it might wish
Although it makes me a little sad
they never turn to a tartan plad…

Perhaps you could season your potato salad with cuttlefish ink. Start a trend..

A trend towards throwing up?
Burger King tried using a black bun for Halloween last year and it did not go well. I’d imagine black potato salad would educe the same reaction.

Yes, but think of the benefits. No one would ask you to bring a covered dish to potluck suppers and parties anymore.

I think I can relate to your potato salad. My poetry is of the “roses are red” variety. I am so uncreative!
