Only In My Brain

Anyone can dream about totem animals. It's a standard symbol.

But it takes someone truly.... special, I guess, to dream about totem vegetables.

Noone wanted the iceberg lettuce as their totem - it's kind of the frog of the vegetable world, not as trendy and hip as the other options. I'm not sure why, though; Joe Two Spears, Broccoli Warrior doesn't sound any more prestigious. Tasty and nutritious though they may be, I'm pretty sure almost all vegetables are intrinsically uncool....

I'll take your veggie totems over 19th boys' school literary fiction (kept switching between reading it and living it) - eeeeurgh! I wanna be an Eggplant Shaman! (there's a filk in there I am SO not doing!)

oh oh oh, a challenge!

Take some salt in your hand
Add it to a green that's bland
Spinach or a fine, small pea
But don't you mess with broccoli.

Try eggplant for a snack
Buy some peppers by the pack
Vegetables aren't wild & free
Except the bravest brocolli.

All the veggies can agree
One deserves a jubilee
All hail the totem brocolli...

As long as you aren't an Eggplant Wizard - he works the villainous side.
