“The Cob of Corn”

 

1.    Popcorn, risen

2.    From the flames

3.    From a burning cob of corn.

4.    Turned from a raw plant

5.    To a crunchy and dry delight.

 

6.    It is what had bonded families

7.    In every moment.

8.    The buttery and dry taste

9.    From each individual.

10.  Born from fire.

 

11.  Since the beginning of time,

12.  It has stuck with us.

13.  In every turn,

14.  Everywhere you go,

15.  Multiple individuals

16.  Make such a delight.
