'Are you going to serve up epigram and chips? ' <br /> <br />'Yes, I'm going to make you eat your words.' <br /> <br />'It's a witty or sarcastic utterance' he remarked, <br /> poetically. <br /> <br />'Oh no, my dear, that isn't right. <br />It's food' she proclaimed energetically. <br />'Bits of fish and so forth <br />encased in crispy crumb <br />is what they are. <br />And just to prove this <br />why not ask my Mum! ' <br /> <br />'So are you going to serve up <br />epigrams and chips? ' <br /> <br />Incensed she said 'I'll make you eat <br />your words.......with chilli dips.'<br /><br />Francesca Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/epigram-5/
