Please add me to your blog roll
or add me to your tootsie roll
or add me to your mondegreens
because I am the egg roll
dipped in the same sauce as you
isn’t a poet always in translation
or transition all of the above
his never-resting glance
showing up briefly in
recognition of the world
but he has finer flesh
to fry one finds but rarely
cooked for breakfast
with a fat piece of bread.

I got a message from Blogger I never got before when trying to leave a comment.
Anyway, I was saying love this and loved seeing mondegreen lol!
We should form a Mondegreen Society (NOT to be confused with a poetry movement! blecch!)
What message did you get. Still learning the ropes here. Thanks for the comment...Mondegreens Unite!
Hi Peter (and William),
I belong to a mondegreen society. Sort of.
It started with a book centering on a mondegreen: "Gesundheit whistle" (a whistle to acknowledge a sneeze) misheard as "Gazoon High Twizzle." See an animation of the Gazoon High Twizzle here.
That page is within a larger site called MandyGreenProject.com, named after the book's author, Mandy Green, whose name is a mondegreen of "mondegreen."
For one thing, we're trying to attract attention from others named Mandy Green, so please tell every Mandy Green you know about this.
Hope you like the site. I'll add you to my tootsie roll.
