I yam what I yam.
I have one rut and I stay in it.
I plow and plant and gather the seeds,
And plow and plant them over again.

I eat. I sleep. I repeat
Sweet nothings in your ear.
I’m growing strangely tuberific,
Completely orange on the inside.

I don’t have to try and be sweet.
I find I truly am.
They say, “You are what you eat.”
Maybe you are what you war.
But as for me, 
I yam what I yam.
