Butter Half

written by: Elisa Prell

@inspireshot

One day bread met butter
All he could do was stutter

He found courage to give her a toast
His speech made her hungrily engross

She melted right into his crusts
Together they cooked great lusts

They fed each other a good laugh
They became each others butter half

Hi! I'm from Texas and love all kinds of art.
I am also a dog lover, travel lover, and want to be of inspiration to myself and others.
Decided to embrace my fear by showing my work : )

Warren Alexander grew up in Brooklyn, NY in a standard two parent, one son, one daughter household, and still lives in New York City. He was identified as the first five-year-old cynic his kindergarten teacher had ever encountered. He did not like children’s books because, well, they were written for children. Because he was a terrible student, he did not have his choice of colleges. He looked at the subway map and chose the nearest four year school by distance, Baruch College. He studied with Thomas Keneally, Peter Carey, and E. L. Doctorow, among others at NYU, where he received his MA in creative writing. His satiric novel, Cousins’ Club, was a semi-finalist for 2017 BookLIfe Award for General Fiction. His work, Wrong Train, placed second for the 2016 Rick DeMarinis Short Story Award judged by Michael Matrone. He is currently working on a satiric novel about business.
