I broke the blender this morning
Burned up the rubber piece in the bottom
Blending
A smoothie that was too big
On the high setting

I should have started low
Until it was mixed some
And then turned it up higher
So it wasn’t so hard on that poor
Piece of rubber

In between an engine that had
All the strength
And a blade that had
All the ambition
To blend more than the machine
Ever had before

But the rubber wasn’t ready
And the engine and the blade
Did not consider the rubber
In their plans
