Suggestive Modifications Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Suggestive modifications,
Seldom reflect a credible ability.
Selected suggestive modifications,
Has a lot to do with the picking and choosing...
That which best represents one's taste!
And one's identity to that frame of mind,
Others too find suitable with a limiting done...
To one's own comfort zone.

'What are you saying? '

Am I not the only one eating collard greens?

'Don't be silly.
Of course you are.
No one else brought them.
And the way you are eating them,
No one has a chance to taste...
How delicious they are.'

I know.
And I am not here to see them wasted.
Passed to me the hot sauce.
