Coffee with creamers from all over the world
Hair done with boofs and the perms home curled
Clackety saucers with pinkies straight up
Caffeinated ladies shout, “Hey, another cup!”

I lurk in the shadows; I’m husband unseen
It’s a Tupperware party and everything’s clean
The closets, the hamper, and even the eaves
But my wife gets the profit when everyone leaves

She’s sold candles, cosmetics, and even bake ware
My favorite, of course, is the modeled underwear
She’s a seller by nature, she sold me her heart
But it’s sad, these parties, I don’t get to take part

I found in the corner a place I could hide
I got to my skivvies and I climbed inside
When they go to open this Tupperware trunk
I’ll jump out and cry "I'm the Tupperware Hunk"

Walt! I'm going to have to throw out all my Tupperware now because everytime I see it, I'll think of this poem.
