If I were an Oscar Meyer donut
Living in a Pacific Island hut
I’d be sweet and sincere
And drink all your light beer
Scruffy beach bum sugar hair like a mutt....

I see 
white people
in the donut shop.
I see
white cars
at the restaurant.
I see
white shirt
on the black chest.
I see
white clouds
in the October blue sky....

OH no!~ A heist in progress!
            
    Stop!

    Put down that box!

A failed diet
Waist size increasing
Care to share a donut?



For the "Just The Facts" contest...

How do cops on bikes arrest someone
They say, “Get in the basket till I finish my muffin”
Now why do cops
Love donut shops
Donuts tend to make them big and strong and tough-n...

If we believe life is a circle 
where the end of one journey 
is the beginning of the next

Today I’m thankful for donuts
because…

Nothing epitomizes that belief
more than a donut does

Flour
Makes a great paste
Tortes, scones, cobblers, muffins
Cinnamon and sugar crust, yum!
Cakes and pies would be nothing without it
Donut making relies on it
Throw in some sugar please
Necessary
Flour...

Loneliness is a stale donut
Forgotten and left in box
For how many days now?
How many days!
Takes as self-pity
Eating the donut it tastes like pain
And sickness rising in my throat
For I remain and the box I throw out...

Olives, pickles, and flaming dumpsters
along with broken light bulbs covered in cheese
Donut ghosts flying alongside fedoras
filled with rubber chickens
Socks that can produce cottage cheese
and finally, notebooks eating grapes...

COMING TOO SOON
by H.B.Ussach

Popping up like pre-fab stucco-concrete-aluminum posies,
Poking up on parking lots as donut shops and quick lubes,
They are plain, utilitarian, proletarian low-low-price bunkers
On a retail war-weary land....

How's that old donut shop, the one between your ears
Are you still serving up donuts like in all your previous years
Over a large cuppa coffee
With a Boston Cream or three
Till you finally close up shop and call it a career...

this is absurd
to discuss
something
that isn't

so you have
or should i
say have
not

a loop
a black
a donut
but don't

you think
if i ate every
thing that that
would include

even the
emptiness
of all so that
would mean i

ate
the
whole
thing...

She was longing for her creamy donut
To linger long on her tongue,
She squeezed the sides and to her surprise
It squirted all over her bum.

The big Bermondsey baker man
Shook like an oversized oaf
At silly situations of tasty temptations
As he always liked having a loaf....

Someone in a donut hole
Can’t hear a noisy tale

Pinocchio Nose  is growing gradually
Above the clouds in the sky

The tip of his nose reached freezing space
Or violent heat evaporates all at once

Darkness is too dark
Brightness is too bright

No one can see anything there
Anyone can be blinded forever...

The sun is up and a new day is ahead.
I don’t want to get up.  I want to stay in bed.
I don’t work today.  I have nowhere to go.
To the world, I wish to be a no-show.
However, there’s that smell so sweet.
It comes from the donut shop across the street.
Everything there smells so heavenly.
I start my morning with 
FRESH DONUTS AND COFFEE....

My way of life...
Is just down the block
Around the corner
Across the street
Through the park
Across the bridge
Down the sidewalk
Through the tunnel
Across the road
Past the donut shop
Into the red door
Down the hall
Up the stairs
Two doors down
Into the doorway
Past the bed
By the window
On the desk
Under the book
Is a pen and paper
My way of life......

Newborns are born daily, still magical, enthralling us
With their kittenish mewing sound
snuggling into our fat shoulders

Pies, cakes, and pastries are made
by bakers at four a.m.
Humming as they work,
anticipating the happy excitement
of people who want a fresh donut at six.

Two-year-olds are laughing full out,
Seven-year-olds are asking for their own unicorns.
What can be more hopeful than that?...

The Cinnamon Bazooka Bun is an ardent dough
a pound of sticky heat that dissolves 
the tongue in an orgasm of butter.

There is an uncertain pantless fervor here
in the parked Impala, a craven pursuit of the 
spiral core, winding mounds of sacchariferous frit

A cop drives by--and we shrink in our non-chalance
our frosted, reunion-phased glaze betrays no chance
that something untoward is not happening here....

Juicy round orange.
Squeeze roll and cut a round hole.
Use peppermint stick as straw.
Juicy round lemon.
Squeeze roll and cut a round hole.
Use peppermint stick as straw.
Juicy round apple.
Cut and slice in eight pieces.
Spread peanut butter on thick!
Juicy round donut.
Cut half in two like sandwich.
Put pineapple slice.
Using donut halves.
Make a pineapple sandwich,
Very juicy Christmas treats....

Lovely to look at
Incredibly delicious
Fresh baked donuts
Not so nutritious

Sugary and sweet
Glazed so divine
A baker’s dozen
They’re all mine

Too much sugar
Brings on a coma
But I have earned
My donut diploma

Licking my fingers
After each bite
Sends sugar level
Clear out of sight

I’d share my donuts
If you were here
But since you’re not
Perhaps have a beer!

Well well well a story of three holes
First one is about a very deep cavern
One is so so so deep
Dropping a rock has never been heard

Second one is a hole in a yummy donut
I've yet to taste it so I say no
Some say one can hear the icing dripping
Now things are definitely weirdo

Third one is a hole in your head
Answer to one plus two is four
Was always good at math in school
Pretty sure it's four well almost sure...
