Analysis of veggie tails
John Jessup Kennan 1953 (Pomona)
conventions of
cabbages gatherings
of intelligence
leeks
mass-produce
perfection process
deflowering
package freaks
voices in my
head are angels
though my
voice no heavenly
choir I sound like
feral mutt keeping
warm by a
dumpster fire
calamity salad is
special of the
day carrot
heads to mule
train whipcakes
potato pies to
burlesque vesties
tell me where to
stand in
line
i'll polish my
mystique
