Carrots

'' Eating Carrots Aid Night Vision''

Carrots are for those who hunger,
For what will satisfy right now.
Whether blind, half blind or just blinkered.

We all have needs to be fulfilled.
Words of truth may shake foundations,
No bad thing! when the build’s on sand.

Those golden roots they lay deep down.
Store them with care, keep them all dry,
They’ll be used in time to dine the many.

When the famine looms, they’ll fill a gap.
May they inspire still simple desires, 
A challenge to the innards of Tardis

   Proverbs 29:18
