Pickles By Phoenix Pearson
I love pickles so that last birthday
I received six jars
My fridge was stocked, at least the top shelf
No problem, I’ll eat them all by myself

I love them so I’ll eat them any way
On trains or in cars
I’ll eat them from Maverick
I’ll eat them till I’m sick

I like them on my sandwiches
I’ll eat them in ditches
I’ll eat my pickles here or there
I’ll eat those pickles anywhere

I like vinegar, I like dill
Eat them all I will
I’ll have a charcuterie board
Six types of pickles strikes a chord

But.
If you give me a sweet one
You and I are done.
People who like them have bad taste
Truly such a waste.

I like to drink the juice in a fountain
I’ll sing it from the top of the mountain
The electrolytes in it are salty
Nothing about it faulty

I’ll eat those pickles from Nalley
I’ll eat them in the valley
Pickles from Milwaukee
I’ll eat them while I watch hockey

I’ve even made my own
I looked up a recipe on my phone
And went to the kitchen
When they were done they were truly *******’
