The Broken Toaster- POEM

 

The smell of burnt bread,

plastic melt in between,

a toaster that has lost,

all hope,

in being,

what it is meant to be

Sad face on bread,

breakfast ruined,

as an appliance is....

no more

What is that smell,

in the kitchen,

the smell of burning,

bread,

bagel,

toaster pastry,

Fire starts,

breakfast ruined,

bread soakedd,

as if,

the house,

was on fire

Plastic melting away,

what once was,

a perfect toaster,

used to heat,

burnt to plastic,

Electricity filled,

in all the wrong places,

don't touch,

the broken toaster,

a frown on the bread,

that symbolizes,

a burnt face,

a sadden reminder,

that breakfast,

can be destroyed,

if an appliance,

is broken

Have you ever eaten,

burnt toast,

the taste,

of charcoal,

hit your tongue,

as you cry,

on the inside

Toaster broken,

the taste,

of sadness,

hopeless,

piece of bread

from a toaster,

that once,

worked well

Take care of the toaster,

for one day,

it will break apart,

burn,

char you food,

and then,

be no more
