WanSum
By
M. Jay Mansfield
WanSum WanSum WanSum WanSum
Would you like some?
Yesh, Sip
The sound of a tortured 2 year old…
Between shouts of MINE and peease
Grown-ups snidely play
WanSum WanSum WanSum WanSum
Want some drink
Yesh, Sum
How much fun to know the answers
And still hold the question out
Watch their face as we play
WanSum WanSum WanSum WanSum
Want a taste
Yesh, pease
His little face all twisted up at me
He’s asked a dozen times
How dumb dad must be
WanSum WanSum WanSum WanSum
A stick?
Yesh, Gum!
Some times disgust lines his face
But he plays the old man's game
And laughs when he wins
