The Gadget

The Gadget

Opening the can
With one simple hand
Is not as easy as it seems.
Why not I ask
When doing that task
Doesn’t the lid come off with ease?

Is it because
I seem to pause
To watch it go around?
The uncut lid clicks
And yes I will admit
Swear words do have a distinct sound.

Lid with squiggly lines
Gouged paper on the outside
The veggie picture destroyed.
Main course silently still
Dessert waiting to chill
This meal is waiting to be enjoyed.

Ok, it’s just an electrical gadget
To make our life pleasant
However, it’s a frustrating machine.
I just hope
My family can cope
Without these damn green beans!

Och, can I ever identify with *this*, although mine's not electric. LOL. I hate when the thing just goes round and round without CUTTING. arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Thanks for the suggestion Beverley. I edited it and hope it reads easier. Renee

Very funny poem. I felt the rythmn was broken, however, with the use of puncuation marks (specifically all the commas). It felt choppy as I read it. I loved the story though and really laughed!
