Hah! A rhyming ode to "Baloney" -- and may I say (if it's German Baloney" I'm a huge fan! I grew up on the "delicacy. My mom and dad used to fry it as a special treat! Great rhymes here and 14 and 15 syllable lines that have an easy "beat" to them making this a fun read! You need more readers! More fans! I think I'll jump on board that train.

I love it, Mike! Just my kind of poem. Poetry doesn't have to be deep and abstractly meaningful to be enjoyed, at least not by me. Give me a humorous take on a mundane thing like baloney any day! Terrific start here on FanStory. I look forward to more of your posts. Jim

Congratulations on your first post!
A humorous, well composed poem. The meter and rhyme sit well.
I used to think that baloney was made from the leftovers after other products had been made from the meat of an animal, until I saw a show on making baloney. What was left over was made into sausages! I haven't eaten a sausage since.
I appreciated your double entendre to conclude your poem.
Best of luck in the competition.
