FOOTNOTE TO A POEM ABOUT HAM

Potée berrichone is French Ham and bean stew. They use the pig knuckle. Eek. You wake up and you say where am I? And they say you are in France. Eek! What is that? you ask. They say, Why, that’s Potée berrichone, mon cherie. You say, I bet you’ve never seen me wiggle my toe. They say Non, never the wiggle toe.
