Cup Is My Name


Cup
is my
name

Cup is my name, I’m empty
so fill me, make me hot,
make me cold, imbibe me.
I’m plastic, ceramic, paper, and glass
I’m hard when I’m steel, don’t bite me.
I’m shaped like a cylinder, in all
shapes and sizes, give me
water, give me tea, coffee or beer,
soup and wine go down fine
any drinkable liquid satisfies me.
Make me clean when I’m dirty,
lick me all around or immerse me
in water or sun just scrub me.
Don’t drop me, you’ll break me,
smash me, or crack me,
look after my needs
and I’ll quench you.
Cup is my name,
pick me up, place me on lips,
tilt your head back,
try to find me

Now time for my anti-dada moment that I share with all my named friends…
This is the T-shirt and Hoodie I wear, the poster I see on my wall:
