Popcorn Poem:
I am a popcorn kernel,
on the electric range,
with oil to my ankles,
waiting for the change.

Pop, pop, it's started happening,
the noise has just begun.
Pop, pop, there it goes again.
It sounds like lots of fun.

Explosions to the left of me.
Explosions to the right.
I'm just about to blow my top, I really think I might. BANG!

REACTION!
