This is Just to Say

With apologies to William Carlos Williams




This is to just to say
That I have binned the toes
Which you had in the refrigerator*

and which you were probably saving for something
even if they put me off my breakfast.**

Don't bother thanking me.

They were disgusting.
So round.
And purple.
And oozy.




*Which is to say that I have turned them over to Molly for proper and respectful disposal at the morgue, not wanting a repeat of last month's eyeball incident. ***

**And no, I will not be purchasing plums at any time in the near future.****

***Even if they were cow's eyeballs.

****Or prunes.



For the July 6 writing prompt at Watson's Woes. This is about as cracky as I could think of!
