which is the Found Object for Day 14 of Laura Shovan's February Poetry Challenge.
Loaded Language
"Does this potato come with
any toppings?"
"Lady, that's a loaded
question."
"Whoa, that baked potato must be loaded!
Look at his white stretch limo!"
"Get a load of Baked Potato--
she thinks she's so fancy in her
cream-colored coat,
butter pat hat and her
chives-and-cheese
statement necklace."
"Baked Potato's been down at Benny's Bar &
Grill all night."
"Yep, he'll be heading home loaded
again..."
The photo is by Diane Mayr, I believe, and I was torn--should I treat the potato as the Found Object, the poster, or strange, seemingly pointless object taped to the front of the poster? As you can see I picked none of those and chose the LANGUAGE as the object instead.
Ha ha! That seemingly pointless object taped to the front is a string of LED lights! It was supposed to light up the baked potato and make you crave its awesome deliciousness. I guess. I love words, their multiple meanings, and puns. Thanks for today's treat!
