Willy, my old friend. I'm afraid you're mistaken, yet again... but I forgive you. And a poem is something like what Mr. Baca, a poet, made. The following is one of my favorite quotes from his poem 'Green Chile':

'I prefer...my eggs and potatoes for breakfast... in the wind... licking the breeze.'

Oh, and:

'But grandmother loves... sweating over the stove...for a dollar a bag...'

Those quotes really capture the true meaning of the poem, in my opinion.

*kfffffffff kfffffffff kfffffffff*

Two more questions:

1) What's a poem?

b) I'm so cool.
