(the real challenge was to try and scramble the words with the spell-checker continuously correcting them, LOL!)

pteioc befakasrt (for Joseph*’s “scrambled” challenge)

 

in utenburtale tioruml is tihs pteioc cehf, eggs
of cateroin witanig to be borekn, the pgae silzinzg
and msue and mnid siltl angurig on waht I suhlod sbarlmce
tiehr misgnus wtih.


srroy, my draes, picatneie has jtus mteled and soon it
wlil brun – so, hree go melery the ylok and the wtihe of wdros
all bateen tehgoter puls a pnhic of slat taht I cna’t aiovd.


and a pialn olemet of pteioc itnet, I’m ariafd, wlil be all
ylo’ul be gitetnig for befakasrt taody!

... and here is the "unscrambled" version. enjoy! :0)


poetic breakfast (for Joseph*’s "scrambled" challenge)


 


in unutterable turmoil is this poetic chef, eggs
of creation waiting to be broken, the page sizzling
and muse and mind still arguing on what I should scramble
their musings with.


sorry, my dears, patience has just melted and soon it
will burn – so, here go merely the yolk and the white of words
all beaten together plus a pinch of salt that I can’t avoid.


and a plain omelet of poetic intent, I’m afraid, will be all
you’ll be getting for breakfast today!

Kewl write, I didn't see the challenge but I get the drift, and I think you mastered it very well.
