Pancake Gorilla Onion

Pancake Gorilla Onion

A Poem by Earl Schumacker
"

Sanity is not an option

"
Pancake Gorilla Onion

It is obvious, the connection
Pancake, gorilla, onion
Walking down the street of all conclusions
Closed in on all sides by saffron meadows
On all fours if you like
Reached before the end
Hidden below the surface
All words emerge sooner or later
What's next on the agenda
Do you expect us to believe
Troglodyte, ash tray, light bulb
Don't say I didn't warn you
Is ash tray even a word
Bless me with the metal aspergillum
Holly water thirsty first
How ridiculous that sounds
Pancake gorilla onion
Will have the final word


*Authors note:  aspergillum is a real word.  You have to dig a little bit to find it.  It is a religious metal device or object used to sprinkle holy water at religious ceremonies.

Trychophyton Mentagrophytes. Aspergillum is also a fungus, much to the consternation of the church, I am sure. I like your logic.

interesting and imaginative to say the least .. and aspergillus is a fungus that can cause very serious disease in humans .. it received its name because under a microscope it looks like ...yep ..an aspergillum ;) i bet you had fun writing this one ..it (to me) is a bit of a poets rant ..we strive so hard to string words just so don't we :)
