I Wrote a Good Omelet ~ Nikki Giovanni

I wrote a good omelet . . . and ate a hot poem . . . after loving you

Buttoned my car . . . and drove my coat home . . . in the rain . . . after loving you

I goed on red . . . and stopped on green . . . floating somewhere in between . . .
being here and being there . . .
after loving you

I rolled my bed . . . turned down my hair . . . slightly confused but . . . I don't care . . .
Laid out my teeth . . . and gargled my gown . . . then I stood . . . and laid me down . . .
to sleep . . .
after loving you
