I saw you watching when I got up
and I want to reassure you,
it’s not you, it’s me. It’s not the way
you were snapping your fingers. Or how
loudly you were breathing. Sure,
I don’t like your shirt. But
there are lots of shirts
here I don’t like.
Look at that guy, for example.
No, this is about me.
And the choices I’ve made.
The potatoes I had last night, for example.
it’s me

potatoes’ impact on history, and you in particular, cannot be overstated.

seriously, fascinating. it’s no wonder that the potato has the potential to alter the fates of people, nations, soup, chips.
and, yes, i’ll sing it.
you say potato, i say potato.
