Normally I don't enjoy poetry but I really enjoyed reading this.
Just Shake, and Bake
Am I adopted?
I ask my mother
she shrugs
hands me a bag of bread crumbs
drops in a pork chop
while in my other life
a girl who looks like me
is walking home from school
twirling her house key
turning the doorknob
opening the back door
finding her mother in the kitchen
smiling
My favorite poem was about the author's reaction to seeing Picasso's Guernica for the first time, In the Museum of Modern Art.
