Dessert Is the End

The House Soup of the Day
  By me always holds sway
Be it tomato or potato ~
  Hold the 'tender chunks of crow'

As for appetizers
  Make sure they're not from Pfizer
And leave out the salad greens
  I abhor abdominal vaccine

Now, as for the main course
  Please don't serve monkey or horse
What if I ate a future Bonzo or Mr. Ed
  I'd rather starve, thank you...
           'real tears' I'm known to shed 

Finally, we come to dessert
  My preference, I hereby blurt
If I've already eaten my fill ~ then
  Dessert, your favorite poet kills

Ah, no, you're supposed to save a little room. Me too, " I abhor abdominal vaccine" and I would die if I found out I'd eaten Mr. Ed. Enjoyed.
