Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for November 12, 2022

Once you were two,

dear birthday friend.

In spite of purple weather:

.

But now you are three

And near the end

As we grew some together.

.

How fourthful thou,

forsooth for you

For soon you will be more!

.

But — ‘fore one can be three

be two;

Before be five be four!

-Walt Kelly

Roe, roe, roe your boat.

Beluga can be awfully judgmental.

What’s caveat?

Caviar can sit there forever in my book. YUCK!

So does Ninja Sloth drinks hs wine instantaneously or do he take time to sip and relish the taste?

I think the caviar is putting on airs.

This caviar is a bit off.

Rotten caviar and fresh caviar, both equally disgusting.

Isn’t caviar usually brined to preserve it?
