I Wrote a Good Omelet

One of my favorite poems is Nikki Giovanni's "I Wrote a Good Omelet". See if it doesn't tickle your innards, too!

"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"
